Keller Williams' PettyGrass featuring The Hillbenders

Keller Williams has announced a new Tom Petty-inspired project titled Keller Williams’ PettyGrass, which finds him performing select covers in a rollicking bluegrass style alongside eclectic bluegrass quintet The Hillbenders. The project began in 2015, when Williams put together a set of Petty covers for his annual hometown S.P.C.A. benefit, recording the rehearsals as voice memos on his phone. After Tom Petty’s untimely passing earlier this year, Williams and his longtime collaborator Jeff Covert enhanced these recordings and posted them as a tribute to the legend’s legacy and inspiration. In 2018, Keller Williams will bring his PettyGrass project out on the road for the first time. These special performances will serve as a way to pay homage to a musical icon, while bringing a new perspective to his time-honored songs.
