Jake Kohn & Low Water Bridge Band at Turntable in Indianapolis on Wednesday, October 1, 2025!
From Stephens City, Virginia, Jake Kohn is a singer/songwriter on a clear path to stardom. At only 17 years old, Jake's unusually deep voice and songwriting ability have garnered the attention of some of his favorite artists. 2024 saw him play festivals such as Mile 0 Festival, MerleFest, Newport Folk Festival, Pickathon, and Bourbon & Beyond. In addition to a slew of headline dates, he supported Sierra Ferrell, Sam Barber, and Wyatt Flores. Stay tuned for what Jake has in store for 2025.
It is not lost on Jake that he is playing shows beyond his years. In fact, he is still awestruck when people recognize him. Whether it is signing a poster for a fan or being invited to see Tommy Prine's release show, Jake is consistently surprised and grateful to be at this point in his 4-year career.
Jake picked up a guitar, gifted from his great-grandmother, at 11 years old, and taught himself to play chords from a poster on his wall. His mentor, Buddy Dunlap, would let Jake play at his barn, teaching Jake some tricks of the trade along the way. He grew up listening to music his dad, Erick, enjoyed, like Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard. His family has no musical background, but Jake has been singing along since they can remember. It was Youtuber, Grady Smith, who introduced him to the world of alternative country. Jake credits Justin Townes Earle with being his favorite songwriter of all time. He continues to draw inspiration from his music and guitar style. Like Justin Townes Earle, Jake can also be found playing so hard he pops strings during his set.
Jake will tell you he penned his first "good" song at 12-years-old. The song, "Fraterville, TN," tells the story of the Fraterville Coal mining disaster of 1902. If you are fortunate enough to get this song in your set, Jake will always tell the story that devastated the town. While his own life experience hasn't influenced the majority of his songs, Jake tells stories of real American people. His songs speak to the experience of many in Appalachia, and you will find yourself wondering how an artist so young can capture the emotion that comes with living a full, often burdensome, and complex life.
The local music scene in his home of Winchester, Virginia is no stranger to talent. Jake had the support of Logan Moore from Low Water Bridge Band early on. He began playing local bars at age 13, uploading new music via YouTube in his time away from school and gigs. It was his video for "Hard as Stone," filmed for Radio West Virginia, that fueled Jake's widespread notoriety. His video for "Frostbite," a gut-wrenching and jaw-dropping showcase of his songwriting and vocal ability, continues to make its way across all platforms bolstering millions of views.
Low Water Bridge Band
Listen | Watch
There’s a sound the Shenandoah River makes as it rumbles over old stones in the shallows. It sings songs the way they used to be – plain and honest. No frills, buckle that belt before you head to the hills and hollers. It’s there under a Virginia moon that you’ll find the Low Water Bridge Band.
Forged by firelight picking, the band’s romping, stomping, country-grass Americana ain’t for the faint of heart. Since their founding in 2020, they’ve gone from barnstorming the Shenandoah Valley to festival stages along the East Coast. Venues from the Carolinas to Kentucky and, yes, Nashville, Tennessee ring with their sound and are asking for more.
They’re led by guitarist and lead singer Logan Moore’s searing melodies. The precision thump of brothers Alex and Riley Kerns’ bass and drums and their pitch-perfect vocal harmonies fill out the sound. Justin Carver’s pedal steel and banjo swirl through songs like smoke from the campfire. And it’s all brought together with the crunch and crackle of James “Chainsaw” Montgomery’s electric guitar riffs.
From the first time you see them, your boots will be worn from kicking up dust. By the time a second chorus comes around you’ll be hooting and hollering their memorable originals alongside their die-hard fans. You’ll join a crowd who travels far and wide, bringing the party to your town. If you’re a fan of good music done right, be sure to keep a lookout for this fast-rising outfit from Clarke County, Virginia. Chances are, they’ll be blowing through your way one of these days soon.
