GrassStreet Bluegrass Band
GrassStreet, from central North Carolina, has a contemporary bluegrass format based on traditional styling with a modern presentation vocally and instrumentally. The material for this band is a mixture of bluegrass standards and original compositions combined with a crowd-pleasing stage show. GrassStreet is a derivative of the band Swift Run that has performed regionally since the early ‘80s with two albums to their credit and numerous awards. GrassStreet’s newest release, "Better Times", was released August of 2004. This CD is all straight ahead driving bluegrass. All but two of the cuts will be original material or original arangements. "Acoustic Pathways", released December '03, is centered on both original and other selections Wayne & David Kinton have performed since they started playing together. An all-acoustic project with a distinct bluegrass flavor, "Acoustic Pathways" contains elements of blues, swing, gospel, and jazz. Individually, as members of other groups, each member of GrassStreet has performed in about every bluegrass band situation imaginable. Members of GrassStreet are: Wayne Kinton, guitar; David Kinton, bass; Jason Jones, mandolin; Ricky Hargis, banjo; Kevin Tompkins, dobro. For more information visit www.grassstreet.net

Story behind the song
Written for a drama
Lyrics
Garden vs 1 In the stillness of the hour They broke bread with the Holy One Within the four walls of that upper room Our Savior spoke of times to come Peter touched the cloak of Jesus He said “I’d die for you” The Master said “you will disown my name To men before the night is through” chorus We will follow you everywhere As your chosen few Please help us understand What you want us to do vs 2 The time grew close, as the night drew long They followed the Master to the garden As they walked down that winding path Felt the fear of what will come to pass As darkness fell in the garden The soldier’s footstep in the night With a kiss, he betrayed our Lord The master was led away chorus
