NEWS AND UPDATES
August 2025
Hey y’all- we’ve got some exciting things in the works for the fall. Coming up we’ll return to Capon Bridge, WV at the River House on Saturday, August 9th for an outdoor show. This is such a sweet place to visit! Highly recommend if you’re near the Winchester area. We’re also looking forward to playing at Backwater Books again on 8/16 in Ellicott City and we’ll be joined by Ian Trusheim on bass.
We’ll return to VA for a house concert in Richmond on 8/22 and the Oak Grove Festival in Verona (Staunton) on 8/23. We’ve played Oak Grove Folk Music Festival a number of times and can’t wait to return to the sweet amphitheater in the trees!
Looking ahead to October, we’re very excited to announce that we’ll be the Shenandoah National Park Artists-in-Residence for the month. We’ll be working on a batch of instrumental songs inspired by the landscape and have a public performance planned at the Big Meadows Amphitheater for Friday, October 10th at 4pm. We’re so honored and excited for this opportunity to live in the park and create new sounds.
Our most up-to-date schedule is posted below with more shows TBA. Sending out lots of love to y'all. Thanks for reading.
Love and Light, Laura and Kagey
TOUR DATES
ABOUT
Virginia natives, Laura Wortman and Kagey Parrish of The Honey Dewdrops began touring in 2009 and have called the city of Baltimore home for over 10 years. They released their newest album, Here in the Mountains, in August 2024 - a batch of songs written and inspired by the origin story of a close friend.
Throughout their two-decade partnership, the Dewdrops have highlighted the power and intimacy of two voices and two instruments in both live performances and recordings. Laura and Kagey constantly push the boundaries of their experimental folk sound—blending electric and acoustic guitars, mandolin and clawhammer banjo—while weaving in tight vocal harmonies. They remain committed to deepening their understanding of the world through songwriting and music.
No Depression says of their 2022 album, Light Behind Light, “The Honey Dewdrops have a way of filling their songs with humanity, using their beautiful playing and harmonies to emphasize what connects us all.”
