    AJ Lee & Blue Summit | The Cody Sisters

    Winston-Salem · The Ramkat, 170 W 9th St

    AJ Lee & Blue Summit return to The Ramkat with special guests The Cody Sisters. AJ Lee & Blue Summit formed in Santa Cruz after years of teenage jam sessions at local bluegrass festivals, then took to the road and grew into a leading voice in contemporary bluegrass. The group features AJ Lee on mandolin, Jan Purat on fiddle, Sullivan Tuttle on guitar, and Sean Newman on bass. Their music blends the spark of their festival beginnings with an easy confidence, reflected on their third studio album City Of Glass, released on Signature Sounds in 2024, and on the 2025 covers collection Cover to Cover V.1 with guests including Lindsay Lou, Trey Hensley, Ahn Phung, and Kyle Tuttle. The Cody Sisters bring close harmonies and finely crafted picking from a lifelong immersion in Colorado folk and bluegrass. The band includes Maddie Cody, Megan Cody, and bassist Will Pavilonis. Maddie plays banjo, Megan plays mandolin, and both also trade on guitar, a mix that earned them an early following through steady performing, writing, and travel. Their songs often lift up quiet voices and shared stories, and the addition of Pavilonis in 2020 introduced new depth to their arrangements.
