 Blending bluegrass, folk, and close three-part harmony, Rachel Sumner and Travelling Light pairs virtuosic musicianship with fearless storytelling, creating concerts that are as entertaining as they are thought-provoking.

Their songs wander through labor history, folklore, the American West, and the lives of women history has too often overlooked. Again and again, they hold the past up like a mirror, asking what it still has to teach us today. 

They  won the 2025 Telluride Bluegrass Band Contest, and Sumner is also a winner of the Kerrville New Folk Competition. She has performed at the Library of Congress, where five of her original songs are preserved in the American Folklife Center archives, and her songwriting has been recognized by the John Lennon Songwriting Contest.

Touring nationally, Rachel Sumner & Traveling Light has appeared everywhere from Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival, and Earl Scruggs Music Festival to beloved listening rooms like Caffè Lena, Club Passim, and Sweetwater Music Hall. Whether on a festival stage or in a backyard house concert, the trio brings the same joyful musicianship, effortless chemistry, and spirit of discovery to every room. Audiences leave laughing, singing, and carrying the stories with them long after the drive home.

Our concerts are still just $25 (plus ticketing fees) and have, as always, a "pay what you can" feature so that everyone can enjoy live music!
