About Your Hosts
Ducks Unlimited: DU got its start in 1937 during the Dust Bowl when North America’s drought-plagued waterfowl populations had plunged to unprecedented lows. Determined not to sit idly by as the continent’s waterfowl dwindled beyond recovery, a small group of sportsmen joined together to form an organization that became known as Ducks Unlimited. Its mission: habitat conservation.
Thanks to decades of abiding by that single mission, Ducks Unlimited is now the world’s largest and most effective private waterfowl and wetlands conservation organization. DU is able to multilaterally deliver its work through a series of partnerships with private individuals, landowners, agencies, scientific communities and other entities.

Sunday Free Concert Series – Tyler Dodson Live!

📅 Sunday, November 2nd🍷 Tasting Room: 1–6 PM | 🍴 Food Truck: 1–5 PM | 🎸 Music: 2–5 PMAdmission is free!
Spend your Sunday surrounded by rolling hills, good company, and great vibes at Gioia dell’Amore Cellars—where joy and music flow as freely as the wine!
This week, we’re thrilled to welcome Tyler Dodson, a soulful singer-songwriter whose music captures the heart of the South. With roots in the Sauratown Mountains and a sound that blends Americana, soul, and story, Tyler brings an unforgettable energy that’s been compared to a “country Bill Withers.” From small-town gigs to Nashville stages, his voice and storytelling strike all the right chords.
Pair those smooth sounds with something delicious from The Rolling LunchBox—a Veteran-owned and woman-operated food truck serving up quick, tasty sandwiches made with heart.
So grab your favorite glass of wine, kick back on the patio, and Scatter Joy with us this Sunday!
About Your Hosts
Tyler Dodson: Born in the foothills of the Sauratown Mountains in Stokes County, North Carolina, Tyler Dodson is a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter whose music weaves together the soulful stories and eclectic sounds of the South. Drawing inspiration from artists as diverse as The Strokes, John Prine, Guy Clark, Tom Petty, and soul legends like Wilson Pickett and Otis Redding, Dodson has crafted a distinctive Americana style—earning him comparisons to a “country Bill Withers.” From his humble beginnings playing for tips and tacos at a Taco Bell in King, NC, to performing at Nashville’s “The Stage on Broadway,” recording in Muscle Shoals, and becoming a festival favorite at Shakori Hills, Dodson’s journey reflects a lifelong devotion to storytelling through song. His debut album, Live at the West Salem Public House, recorded by Doug Williams of EMR Recorders (The Avett Brothers, The Wood Brothers), captures his signature ability to turn simple stories into hauntingly familiar reflections of the human experience.
The Rolling LunchBox is a Veteran owned and woman operated Mayodan based Food Truck. Katie and Jason provide sandwiches made quickly for your entire family. Back in 2016 when Katie was completing her business degree, she was assigned a project to create a faux company. This project sparked her dream! At the time, food trailers / trucks were not very common in our area. After a lot of research, they placed the dream on the “someday list”. They launched their dream in the fall of 2024, and have quickly become one of the most popular food trucks in the area.

Vance D. Archer III has been a musician for over 70 years with a career that spans from classical cello in the family string quartet to 40 years of leading Folk Music, Irish Celli and Contra Dance bands in the greater New York City/New Jersey region. He plays violin, viola, cello, guitar, mandolin, autoharp and bouzouki in a variety of musical styles.
Since moving to Greensboro in 2005, Vance has become active in the Triad Music and Art Scene. In addition to leading the Fiddle Tunes Friendzy, Vance hosts the Triad Music Circle in his home, where they enjoy playing acoustic music from many traditions. The Music Circle consists of musicians with varied abilities and interests while serving primarily as emotional musical therapy for its members. The group also serves as an introduction to group playing for his students. Vance hosts an occasional “Traveling Hootenanny” where folks join for an evening of socialization and singing.
Vance performs solo concerts in various regional venues. For these performances he often plays Guitar, Autoharp and Fiddle while leading the singing. Vance organizes solo and group musical entertainment for social gatherings and trade shows and can gather the proper mix of musicians to accommodate most musical venues.

Vance would rather practice outside than inside. He can often be seen strolling in the Bog Garden, Bicentennial Gardens, Country Park or the Arboretum with his fiddle or sitting on a park bench with his autoharp.
