🎤 Thunder and Rain (Newgrass from Nashville, TN)
Thunder and Rain is a Nashville-based newgrass band blending bluegrass instrumentation with award-winning songwriting inspired by pop, country, and old time. Known for their soaring three-part harmonies and powerful banjo/fiddle drive, the band has toured internationally and shared stages with Billy Strings, AJ Lee and Blue Summit, and Peter Rowan. Their 2024 album Storybook Sessions showcases their rich sound and image-rich lyricism, with new music and a UK tour on the horizon.

Over their decade-long career, Thunder and Rain has shared the stage with artists such as Billy Strings, The Kruger Brothers, Peter Rowan, AJ Lee and Blue Summit, and The Brothers Comatose. Their 2020 single Run With You was selected for the IBMA Songwriter Showcase in 2023.

The band was founded by Erinn Peet Lukes, a singer-songwriter whose path led her through several major music hubs before settling in Colorado in 2013. There, she formed Thunder and Rain within Denver’s vibrant bluegrass scene. Since then, the band has released four studio albums, toured across the U.S., Canada, Ireland, and the UK, and found viral success on YouTube with their bluegrass takes on popular songs, which have earned hundreds of thousands of views.

Following a pandemic-era hiatus, Lukes relocated to Nashville, where she met Amelia Ransom (fiddle) and Laura Ray (banjo). The trio instantly clicked, bringing a renewed focus on tight harmony and a more traditional acoustic sound. They released their fourth album, Storybook Sessions, in October 2024.
