About

KP and the Night Shift isn't a weekend hobby band. Every player on this stage has spent years — some of them decades — doing this professionally, and it shows from the first note.

Fronted by Kristen Portuesi, whose voice has filled Dollywood stages and lit up events like the Knoxville Christmas Tree Lighting, the band plays classic rock, yacht rock, soul, and jazz with the kind of ease that only comes from having done it for real. The groove is deep, the setlist is smart, and the room always knows it's in good hands.

Based in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, KP and the Night Shift plays venues and events where the music is the point — and where people are still talking about it the next day.
