Tanner Bingaman

Songwriter, multi-instrumentalist (banjo, guitar, harmonica), poet, producer, and visual artist Tanner Bingaman spends his days foraging writhing folk art from the hills of Appalachia. He produces and releases music under the moniker Tanner Bingaman's Pretty Big Garden. Tanner has been happily featured on NPR stations throughout the U.S. and has been a two-time artist-in-residence at the prestigious Avaloch Farm Music Institute (Boscawen, NH). In 2021, Tanner was awarded Emerging Artist of the Year by the Susquehanna Folk Music Society, and in 2023, played his first international show with his New Zealand family of musicians (the Pakipakis), raising funds for flood-relief efforts on the North Island. In 2024, Tanner released the first full-length album from Tanner Bingaman's Pretty Big Garden, "Everything & Nothing." In 2025, Tanner toured nearly five months straight from the Midwest to Western Canada and down the West Coast, playing solo shows with Cajun songwriter and friend Dustin Dale Gaspard. Most recently, Tanner Bingaman's Pretty Big Garden was awarded Best Americana Artist by the Central Pennsylvania Music Hall of Fame, and he has been honored with an artist-in-residence invitation to the prestigious Volland Foundation in the Flint Hills of Kansas. The sophmore album, "Jubilee!" from Tanner Bingaman's Pretty Big Garden was made possible by generous fans of the project through a successful crowdfunding campaign, and the record is due out this 2026.
