Quattlebaum: Telluride Mushroom Festival 2026

Quattlebaum returns for the 4th year to the Telluride Mushroom Festival. The oldest mycology festival in the nation.

Quattlebaum doesn’t just play music—he conjures it, bending time and space. His banjo can whisper like a secret or roar like a freight train, while his voice haunts the wind like a ghost in the pines. Armed with a banjo, cello banjo, and guitar, his performances blend storytelling, humor, and raw energy. Whether strutting across the stage like a lanky heron or unleashing shreddy banjo licks, Quattlebaum commands attention, weaving tales of river ramblings, backroad haunts, and wild-eyed wanderers. His voice—gritty, soulful, and unfiltered—rides the line between raw vulnerability and raucous revelry, pulling audiences into a world where bluegrass, folk, and cosmic country collide.
