About Palmetto Rose
Palmetto Rose sprang forth from the Bluegrass traditions of the South Carolina lowcountry in 2017. The band will delight you with well known songs from the worlds of Americana, Bluegrass, Country, Folk and traditions as well as Oldies and the occasional catchy original tune!
With male and female lead vocals, two-part harmonies, guitar, fiddle, dobro, mandolin, harmonica, banjo, and percussion, we create a surprisingly full and varied sound for a two-person act. We move easily from an intimate ballad to a lively Bluegrass tune, classic Country, Folk or an Oldies song that gets the whole room singing along.
Because we’re a duo, we’re a particularly good fit, and equally comfortable entertaining a seated audience or fitting unobtrusively into a reception, party, restaurant, coffeehouse, senior community, church gathering, community event, or other intimate venue. We can adjust our repertoire, volume, and presentation to suit the occasion, and most importantly; we can fit comfortably into smaller spaces.
If you’re looking for friendly, professional, live music that feels familiar, genuine, and fun without overwhelming the room, Palmetto Rose may be exactly the right fit for your event.
Whatever your tastes in acoustic music, we’re sure you will find something to enjoy with the Palmetto Rose! Please contact us for more information about playing your next event. We do events of any size including stage-based, private parties, Farmers Markets and outdoor festivals. We believe in giving back to the community and are happy to discuss your charity event at a greatly discounted or free rate (depending on the organization)

About The Palmetto Rose
The Palmetto Rose is a tradition unique to the South Carolina Lowcountry and Southern Coastal regions. The Palmetto Rose is a hand woven flower made from the fronds of South Carolina’s official tree – the Palmetto tree.
There are many stories about the origins of the Palmetto Rose, which is thought to go back to Civil War times. One tradition holds that southern ladies would make and give a Palmetto Rose to their lovers to keep them safe during the war.
Eventually, the Palmetto Rose came to symbolize eternal, everlasting love. They are still lovingly made in the South Carolina Lowcountry, and still symbolize the blending of nature and love.
