Anne Buckle
When the Carter Family sang about a melancholy flower in the wildwood nearly one hundred years ago, little did they know that three generations later, another Carter songstress would personify its story. Anne Buckle is a singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist based in Nashville, TN. Her lyrical story-telling and haunting melodies channel her Appalachian roots, creating a uniquely original dark indie-Americana sound. She’s been called “a refreshing take on a legendary family" by the Nashville Music Guide and can be found in Music City’s singer-songwriter circuit.
But who is she?
A Harvard graduate; former diplomat at the US Embassy in Paris; classically trained violinist with a master’s degree in arts education; self-taught on nearly a dozen other musical instruments; a Georgia native who now calls Music City home, who spent three years creating the Tennessee Promise program with Governor Haslam. But, this daughter of two school teachers left that life of stability behind, instead choosing to chase her dreams down an uncertain path - one full of doubt and heartbreak, freedom and possibility.
Her original songs have amassed over 4 million streams across platforms, and she has co-written songs recorded by other artists including American Idol’s David Archuleta and Lindy Boone, daughter of legendary crooner Pat Boone. As a fiddle player and vocalist, she has shared the stage with the late Charlie Daniels, toured with Augustana opening for The Chicks on their 2016 World Tour, and performed on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry. As a teaching artist, Anne works with hundreds of individuals and organizations annually to help them unleash their creativity through music.
July 2024 will see new album WILDWOOD out on vinyl alongside her debut children’s book, Firefly, inspired by the eponymous song.
