Live in Studio B, Wednesday at 11am: Hayes Carll

We’re excited to welcome one of our favorite Americana artists back to Studio B. “Like John Prine, Carll has a clever, concise style of communicating serious concepts, frequently through dark humor, displaying world-weary truths underneath wry lyrics. Better still, he cloaks these anecdotes in melodies you’ll be singing after the first spin.” – American Songwriter. Last time he visited, he was joined by members of the Band of Heathens. This time Hayes brings his own 6-piece band to Studio B for a session with Roland just past 11am, before playing the Grey Eagle in Asheville that evening, and the Bijou Theatre in Knoxville on Thursday.

The East Tennessee Market And Diner Where One Family Has Cooked Since 1946

The beef here gets ground in-house, and the burger buns come from the family’s own bakery every day. That’s a pretty good reason to pay attention. The place didn’t even start as a restaurant. It opened as a neighborhood market in 1946, selling groceries, hardware, feed, and gas.

These 12 Knoxville, Tennessee Restaurants Serve The Best Breakfasts In Town

One downtown menu in this city lists a dish called the Banana Pudding Dream Griddle. Another kitchen serves deep fried deviled eggs before lunch, and I have so many questions. A third spot sells crêpes under chandeliers, with a little import shop on the side. Then there’s a biscuit sandwich stacked with fried chicken, bacon, cheddar, sausage gravy, and a fried egg. I love that nobody here seems interested in a sad bowl of cereal.

South Knoxville finally has the local grocery store it's waited years for

After years of setbacks , the long-awaited Old Sevier Market is finally open on Sevier Avenue, answering South Knoxville’s calls for a local grocery store. Knox News stopped in this week to see what products are in stock and to catch up with general manager Claire Taylor, who told Knox News the store is "figuring out the flow and making sure we have what people need to come back." As a small business, Old Sevier Market is able to take recommendations from customers about products they'd like to see in the store and then put in orders to stock them on shelves. The grocery store, which opened Oct. 10 in the same building as Redbud Kitchen and Hi-Wire Brewing, is already building a base of regulars at 906 Sevier Ave. with that neighborhood-focused approach. "That's exactly what we want is people just being able to stop in and get what they need or something that they want," Taylor said. Chris Morton, an owner of nearby Alliance Brewing Company and South Coast Pizza, led the charge on Old Sevier Market and previously told Knox News he was working with multiple partners to follow through on his vision.

'All Aboard' as Oak Ridge museum hosts 25th gala

The Children’s Museum of Oak Ridge will host its 25th Annual Gala from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 20, in the museum's gym. "All Aboard the Silver Line: A 25th Anniversary Gala," is the theme, according to a museum news release. The event is expected to bring together supporters for an evening of entertainment, dining, and auctions benefiting the museum’s educational mission. This year’s train theme honors the museum’s long partnership with the Knoxville Area Model Railroaders , who first collaborated with the museum after receiving the donation of a large model train layout from Oak Ridge resident Milton Lloyd. The museum provided a permanent home for the layout, and the relationship grew into a signature exhibit and years of volunteer support. The museum’s first gala adopted a train theme to celebrate this new partnership, and proceeds supported the development of the new model railroad space. Returning to a train theme for the 25th Annual Gala recognizes the enduring connection between the museum and the railroaders and celebrates the World of Trains exhibit that continues to be a favorite among visitors. This year’s Gala will feature emcee Will Puckett, WVLT-TV anchor, and a presentation by Don Hunnicutt of the

Born 89 Years Ago Today in the Bluegrass State, the Country Music Pioneer Who Helped Turn a Song Into a Tennessee State Anthem

On this day (October 29) in 1937, Sonny Osborne was born in the Eastern Kentucky coalfield town of Thousandsticks. A childhood banjo prodigy, he formed groundbreaking bluegrass duo the Osborne Brothers alongside older brother Bobby—born six years earlier. The sibling pair is perhaps best known for their 1967 hit “Rocky Top”, now a rallying cry for the University of Tennessee Volunteers’ athletic teams. Together, the Osborne Brothers expanded the sonic borders of bluegrass, experimenting with amps, twin harmony banjos, steel guitars, and drums.

Fresh off Michelin nod, Raven owners have 3 Knoxville restaurants planned | Exclusive

The trendy restaurant group behind a Maryville steakhouse recently recommended by Michelin has three Knoxville restaurants in the works, from Gay Street to Bearden Hill. Gemini Hospitality, whose Raven Steakhouse & Lounge was recognized alongside other regional restaurants in the Michelin Guide to the American South , plans to bring an upscale Italian steakhouse to downtown Knoxville to mirror the experience at the Maryville hot spot. The steakhouse, a partnership with Knoxville-based Dominion development group, has been coined Anthony's and is scheduled to open inside Lone Tree Pass on Gay Street next year. Raven sits in the heart of downtown Maryville and leans heavily into "indulgence," Gemini co-founder Jimmy Loup told Knox News. The hospitality group wasn't planning to add another fine dining restaurant to its resume until the developers behind Lone Tree Pass stopped in to dine at Raven. "They enjoyed it, called us, we met and then worked out a deal," Loup said. Lone Tree Pass, located on the 200 block of Gay Street, is a $30 million mixed-use development with condos, a coffee shop and brunch spot in the mix. Anthony's will open in the 6,000-square-foot street level space facing Gay Street. A few blocks south of

Maryville Alcoa Animal Rescue Center Dog of the Week: Cooper

Halloween is approaching! The night when skeletons, ghosties, werewolves, and witches rule. Where spooky things happen under a full moon. But what if you are scared of Halloween? What if the creeps really do creep you out? Then gentle giant Cooper is just the doggie for you!! Cooper is all meaty treats and no tricks. Unless there is a snack involved, then he’ll do any trick. Once, while hiding from trick-or-treaters, Cooper ran into a pack of werewolves who were up to Halloween mischief. They invited Cooper to run with them in the woods, and while Cooper liked all the running, he’d rather snuggle than scare. Scary movies are also a no-go for this sweet boy. Whenever one is on, he covers his eyes with his very furry paw and cuddles in close. And maybe sneaks a piece of candy or two, or three, or four. “I don’t want to be scared! I want to be loved,” Cooper said with a jump. Last Halloween, Cooper ran into a skeleton while he was out trying to find an anti-Halloween party, and he started running. He ran so far that he ended up at the Maryville Alcoa Animal Rescue Center, where he
