Take four A-list musicians from Nashville; combine their talent, touring and studio chops; mix in a heavy dose of funked-up, folkified Americana, blues and rock; and get Damn The Banjos: a pseudo-supergroup rooted in the musical tradition of The Avett Brothers, The Way Down Wanderers, Old Crow Medicine Show, Tom Petty, James Taylor and John Prine.

Damn The Banjos is Tim Carter (banjo, mandolin, guitar, vocals), Mike McAdam (guitar, vocals), Dann Sherrill (drums, percussion) and Scotty Huff (bass, vocals). All four musicians are seasoned pros – player’s players whose collective resumes include touring and recording with some of the biggest names in Nashville, including Alison Brown, Vassar Clements, Hayseed Dixie, Steve Earle, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Radney Foster, Bonnie Bramlett, Engelbert Humperdinck, Steve Winwood, The Mavericks, Keith Urban, Jake Owen and Keb' Mo'.

While it’s true these gents have spent decades in the music industry trenches, they show no signs of slowing down. Damn The Banjos’ debut album, “Full Speed Ahead,” due to be released in early 2023, finds the quartet living up to the album’s name, with energetic instrumentals like the title track, “Full Speed Ahead,” to the swampy “Shake My Soul,” the candid take on small-town life in “Nowheresville,” and the groovy observations of the quirkier people of the world in "Whoa Whoa". Straighten up, buckle up, and get ready for Damn The Banjos.
