Woody Platt and Shannon Whitworth as part of the Spring 2025 Americana Series

Woody Platt and Shannon Whitworth -- Husband and wife duo, Woody Platt and Shannon Whitworth of Brevard, North Carolina, each have a unique history of musical accomplishments. A silver lining of the global pandemic has been more time at home, which has allowed them to play, write, record and perform together. They have curated a set of music comprised mostly of Whitworth’s original songs.

Shannon Whitworth is a songwriter, vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist. She has garnered praise in outlets ranging from People magazine to Garden & Gun.  

Woody Platt, a Brevard native, was a founding member of the Grammy award winning band Steep Canyon Rangers. The band toured the world on their own, and alongside the well known actor/comedian/musician Steve Martin. During Woody’s tenure with Steep Canyon Rangers, the band won multiple awards from the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA), a Grammy award with 3 total Grammy Nominations and were inducted into the North Carolina Music Hall of Fame. 

The concert begins at 6:30 PM. Beverages will be available for purchase.
