We had an incredible interview today with Thomm Jutz, the highly acclaimed roots music troubadour. The conversation followed an unforgettable performance that proved exactly why Jutz is one of the most respected names in contemporary acoustic music.

Captivating the Crowd at ROMP Fest 2026

Our day began at the Bluegrass Hall of Fame and Museum in Owensboro, Kentucky, where Jutz took the stage as part of the ROMP Fest 2026 lineup. Armed with only an acoustic guitar, his voice, and a deep catalog of stories, he delivered a masterclass in solo performance.

Jutz is uniquely talented as a writer, musician, singer, and performer. His inspiring set drew the crowd in completely, holding their attention with every nuance of his literary writing style, vocal delivery, and tasteful instrumental implementation.

The Creative Mind Behind Bluegrass Hits

Beyond his compelling stage presence, Jutz is a premier architect of the modern roots music songbook. During our conversation, we dug into his extensive songwriting catalog, which includes major hits recorded by bluegrass royalty:

  • "Jimmie Rodgers Rode a Train": The historical masterpiece recorded by Del McCoury.

  • "I Choose You": The soulful ballad co-written with Tammy Rogers and recorded by The Steel Drivers.

Jutz shared the inspiration behind these tracks, offering a rare glimpse into his creative process and his ability to spin history and emotion into timeless music.
