Multi-award winning Nashville band Williamson Branch takes the stage at 7 p.m. Thursday, July 18, at Cutler Park in Cutlerville as part of the Sounds of Summer Concert Series and a stop on their 10-Year Anniversary Tour.

“When it comes to music, there’s a closeness among family members that cannot be overstated,” according to Melody Williamson Keyes, eldest daughter and PR/Social Media manager. “Harmonies are sweeter, rhythms are tighter, and emotions are heightened. For Williamson Branch, music and family have been melding for three generations.”

Based in Nashville, their polished approach to music helped propel their single, Blue Moon Over Texas, to the No. 1 spot on the RMR Bluegrass Chart for seven weeks. They garnered the award for Valley Star Family Vocal Group of the Year and front ‘man,’ Melody Williamson Keyes, was recognized as the International Bluegrass Music Association’s Momentum Vocalist of the Year in 2020.

Since their formation 10 years ago, Williamson Branch has appeared on hundreds of stages, including The Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Dollywood, Silver Dollar City, Coffee, Country, and Cody Morning Show on WSM, Heartland TV, The Central Canadian Bluegrass Awards, Song of the Mountains TV Show, Bill Gaither’s Fall Homecoming, and Guy Penrod’s Gospel Music Showcase.
