Gather at the Arts Center of Cannon County tonight to celebratethe infamous Monteagle TN balladeer, raconteur, and master moonshiner
Hamper McBee. This celebration kicks off with a screening of Sol Korine
and Blaine Dunlap’s 1978 video documentary “Raw Mash.” Raw Mash takes the
viewer inside the world of moonshine manufacturing on Monteagle Mountain
and is hosted by Hamper McBee, a traditional ballad singer.
The second act of the evening has Rhythm Bomb recording artist Jason Lee
Wilson joined by Dennis Marlowe playing and singing songs in tribute to the great moonshiner. Wilson is a fine singer and guitarist, with a strong country and rockabilly sensibility.

TheArts Center of Cannon County pays tribute to one of Tennessee’s undersung heroes and outlaws, and the culture from which he came.
