Kit Rodgers is an East Tennessee singer-songwriter whose work blends Appalachian atmosphere, gritty acoustic songwriting, and a Southern rock backbone. A former touring artist with multiple records available on streaming platforms, he writes songs that sound lived-in: part front-porch confession, part backroad sermon, part barstool truth-telling.
Now performing again, Rodgers has returned with Off Grid Sessions, a live performance series filmed outdoors on his rural property near Big South Fork. Surrounded by rock faces, creeks, laurel, woods, and horses, the sessions capture what makes his music work best: strong songs, a weathered voice, and no unnecessary gloss.
His live show is built for rooms that value songs, presence, and authenticity.
