BlueGrassFire
BlueGrassFire was formed in early 2004 with a desire to share our love of Bluegrass music. Each of the band's members bring many years experience to the group. The band enjoys playing for local functions and activities as well as area events and festivals in the summer months.
The pickers are:
Zeek Dietrick - Mandolin, vocals
Doc Kinneson - Guitar, vocals
Slim Shrader - Upright bass, vocals
Buck Buckingham (no longer a member) - Banjo, dobro
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Each member has been playing music their whole life. BlueGrassFire was started in early 2004.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Playing live is the reason we exist. We love playing anywhere from festivals to posh restaurants.
