Check out their web site. The banjoer is Mark Pruett, who played with Ricky Scaggs for 10 years or so but more importantly was in the Mark Pruett Band that played at Bill Stanley's Bluegrass and Barbeque in the 1980s. Their guitar player was a guy named Steve Sutton, You saw some of those pictures posted by Tal.
These new guys are great. The guitar player is Caleb Smith and we spent a great day on the golf course today, Hey! first things firts!!
The mandolin is Darren Nicholson and he was in the Alecia Nugent Band with Steve.
I've been hearing them on XM alot. They are better live. |

Location: Hot Springs, S.D. | Great stuff! Reminds me a little of The Bluegrass Album Band. Fits in well with my day. Got company from California in, he plays banjo, she plays bass. As he is a much better banjo player than me, I'm playing guitar this time. We have some three part harmonies going, and tonight we are playing at the Blue Bison ice cream shop. All we will make is tips, but we will also have all the ice cream we can eat. (I LOVE ice cream. :o ) |

I love it--will have to put this one on my list for Santa.
(And, Alison, I would gladly play anywhere for ice cream: coffee ice cream, hot fudge, whipped cream and chopped almonds.)

Location: 6 String Ranch | yeah, they're the real deal. And it's nice ot go to a blue grass show where they DON'T play Rocky Top. That's got to be the Free Bird of Bluegrass. |
