This past Friday night , we got together on The Zach Moonshine Show for one hell of a ride — hanging out with Jessica from Misfits Market and Raven Moonshine , my partner-in-crime and co-owner of Tennessee Metal Devastation Music Fest . What started as a few laughs and drinks turned into a real-deal deep dive into community, creativity, and how the world of oddities and metal continue to grow side by side here in Jackson, Tennessee .
As soon as the mics came on, it was pure Friday night energy.
“So it’s Friday night, and we’re sitting here having some drinks. Are you having some drinks, Jessica?”
“Oh yes — Miller High Life, the champagne of beers!”
“You gotta hold your pinky out when you drink it!”
The conversation rolled from there, touching on everything from skulls and preserved specimens to supporting local vendors and building an underground community that actually lasts.
Jessica talked about the Misfits Market Expo , an event that’s become a major hub for local artists, crafters, and creators who love the darker side of art.
“It’s more than just selling stuff,” she said. “It’s about connection — about bringing people together who love weird, beautiful things and giving them a space to share it.”
We also got into what’s coming next — Misfits Market Expo 2026 — and from what Jessica teased, it’s going to be bigger, louder, and stranger than ever. Every year, this event keeps pulling in new vendors, musicians, and fans who get that same underground thrill we live for in metal.
And of course, we talked about the big one — Tennessee Metal Devastation Music Fest , happening Saturday, October 11th . Misfits Market isn’t just showing up — they’re sponsoring and vending the fest again this year, bringing that creative spark right into the metal madness.
Raven summed it up perfectly:
“It’s about everyone lifting each other up — that’s what this whole scene is built on.”
That’s what makes it all worth it. Whether it’s music, art, or oddities — this community is built by people who aren’t afraid to create, to support, and to show up for each other.
