8. I'm the guitar/banjo/dobro player and halft the time lead singer

Not to be confused with the OTHER guitar/banjo player and other half the time lead singer ...

We do "unexpected bluegrass" (Beatles, Elvis, Skynyrd) along with some straight-up bluegrass, blues, acoustic rock, etc.

Come out! The Alumni House will be great; it's our first gig there and I want to have a good crowd. See ya there!
