Have you performed in front of an audience?
We play a regular gig at Tamp and Tap in downtown Memphis on Saturdays for Bluegrass Brunch. During the warmer months we play occasionally at the Shelby Forrest General Store. We play assorted performances as they become available.
Your musical influences
Bluegrass, folk, rock, and blues are favorites.

If you are travelling, we can be found jamming on the square in Collierville, Tn, most Friday evenings if it's warm enough or jamming on the square in Mountain View, Arkansas, all weekend.

I found your song "Blue Moon of Kentucy" and I found your page..I love Blue Grass Music. First band I ever played with was Blue Grass "The Kays Brothers"
I graduated to a Country Rock Band but always loved Bluegrass ..Added this song to my showcase !! You guys rock !!

Really enjoyed the vocals. Great rendition of this classic!!
Thanks!
Heard dozens of versions, most done in a much faster tempo. Your version suits the song so much better. Your arrangement is one of my all-time favorites songs of the bluegrass genre, simple, rootsy and earthy. It is always at the top of my list of favorite listens. A gem in the rough. The only other one I have heard that comes even close is in faster tempo by the Rowan Rice Quartet which works only because it is an instrumental version. I don't want to hear anyone else sing it but you. Thank you.
Very well done!
The best I have heard outside of the "Soggy Bottom Boys"
Thanks!
