Shire says they have a firm base in traditional bluegrass, and have also applied “banjo logic” to a lot of great music that needed it, so there will be some pleasant surprises. With their long history of bluegrass performance in many bands throughout the region, he says it’s obvious these guys love bluegrass music.
Gravel Yard can be found at many local events and venues.
The Friday Night Block Party will go through the second Friday of September. The family friendly event will have vendors, food, crafts and prizes.
