THE LOCAL HONEYSThe Local Honeys, the Kentucky duo of Linda Jean Stokley and Montana Hobbs, have spent nearly a decade carving out their own place within the state’s rich musical tradition. Rooted in Central Appalachia, their music blends old-time country and bluegrass traditions with deep grooves, rich harmonies, and a modern edge. After touring with artists including Tyler Childers and Colter Wall and earning praise from outlets like The New York Times, the duo released their self-titled debut on La Honda Records. Produced by longtime mentor Jesse Wells, the album explores rural Kentucky life through vivid storytelling, tackling themes of family, addiction, loss, pride, and the changing Appalachian landscape. With their distinct blend of banjo, guitar, nimble harmonies, and raw rural grit, The Local Honeys have established themselves as both devoted students of Kentucky’s musical heritage and bold voices shaping its future.REBECCA PORTERBorn in Guam and raised in Virginia, Rebecca Porter writes unflinchingly personal songs that challenge the boundaries of genre and amplify voices often left out of the country canon. With commanding live performances and a cinematic debut album, Porter’s work invites listeners into stories of identity, resilience, and reckoning. Her 2023 EP Queen of the Local and 2025 debut album Roll With the Punches have earned national and international recognition, including features on NPR’s Mountain Stage, No Depression, The Bluegrass Situation, KEXP, Adobe & Teardrops and Lonesome Highway.
