Jeremy Brandon Davenport

October 26, 1983 — April 30, 2024


Jeremy Brandon Davenport, cherished husband, father, son, and brother, age 40, passed away in his home in Blaine, Tennessee on Tuesday, April 30, 2024. Brandon was originally from Hayesville, North Carolina. He was a beloved and talented lifelong musician and said he was “country as dirt and cool as the summer rain” as he was.


Brandon, born in the mountain of North Carolina, a member of First Freewill Baptist Church of Hayesville, and a Freemason, started his love for music at the young age of nine years old playing guitar and singing in the church. Throughout his young life into his twenties, he traveled around sharing his talent in gospel and bluegrass music with his brother, Austin, but Brandon’s passion and heart was always in country music. He specifically wanted to pay homage to the country music artist that came long before him and to keep country music that, COUNTRY. His passion led him back to the mountain in Gatlinburg, Tennessee where he spent his best days doing what he loved the most surrounded by his biggest fans, his wife and children, and found his home on both sides of the mountain.


Brandon was preceded in death by his grandmother, Faye Davenport; and dear friend, Travis “Ishmael” Waldroup.


Brandon is survived by his loving wife, Paige Davenport of Blaine, Tennessee; his children, Blayne and Kaitlyn Davenport; his parents, Donald and Leona Davenport; father-in-law, David Evans and mother-in-law, Cindy Evans; brother, Austin Davenport; grandparents, Enoch and Alva-Jean Ledford, Robert Davenport, and in-law, Dot Puckett; niece, Charlotte Evans; special aunt, Denise Ledford; friend, Larissa O’Dell; as well as a host of loved family and friends the made along the way.


Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. Sunday, May 5, 2024 at First Freewill Baptist Church with the Rev. Chris Rumfelt and Rev. Kyle Cody officiating and special word from Rev. Seth Presley. Brandon will lie in state at First Freewill Baptist Church one hour prior to the service.


Brandon will be laid to rest at Shooting Creek Memorial Gardens with Masonic graveside rites conducted by Clay Lodge No. 301. In a final tribute to Brandon, family and friends, Preston Cabe, Randy “Tiny” Nichols, Daniel “Boomer” Ledford, Derrick Lovingood, Allen Davenport, and Josh McConnell will serve as pallbearers, honoring a man who touched so many through the gospel, bluegrass, and country music.


The family will receive friends from 3:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. Saturday, May 4, 2024 at the First Freewill Baptist Church.
