Featherpocket

Steeped in country, folk, and Americana, the four-piece ensemble carefully creates visions of Appalachia far beyond Charlotte’s cityscape. Frontman Jason Cline and lead guitarist Spencer Bloodworth split duties on vocals, while Lexie Trader (bass) and Colin Ray (drums) round out the band. As apt as they are at turning venues into a dance hall with tracks like 2019’s “Reflection” and “Needle and Thread,” the band also brings out emotion with somber refrains like “Lord Forgive Me.” Pulling from their lives and experiences growing up in the country, Featherpocket has a way of sharing memories of an America less discovered.
