Tommy Kay on banjo, drives all the way from the Western Slope to be a part of most of our shows.
Deirdre McCarthy joins us often on violin. What a talent! Not only on the violin, but her smoky and distinctive vocals, along with sublime songwriting skills. We are fortunate to have her play with us.
Bart Wachtler has played with us quite a bit recently, filling in on mandolin and electric guitar. What a thoughtful player he is. His first love, however....is not us. I know. We were shocked to learn that also. LOL. His first love is Red Moon Rounder, a local group of musicians who are producing all original music.
Occasionally we feature Josh Alford on mandolin and Josh Carpenter on banjo
Katie on fiddle is a real treat. We enjoyed her company in the band for over a year. She is moving on to record and play with a lot of local, talented performers. She's a crowd favorite.
Monster mandolin friend Nathan Patton played with the Strings... until he moved to Atlanta, GA with his beautiful family. We miss him.
Kelly Hagerman is a ripping' guitar player. What a musician. He also plays piano and has picked up violin. He has been a great addition to our lineup that we have had the pleasure to enjoy.
