PIPER ROAD

Last year Piper Road celebrated its 40th year of busting the borders of bluegrass with the release of its new CD – “Piper Road: 40”. Piper Road is:

Randal Harrison – Fiddle

Bob Mason – Mandolin

Mark Hembree (former “Bluegrass Boy” with Bill Monroe)- upright bass

Barry Riese — Guitar – Vocals

Bill Kangaroo — Washboard

The band was born into the age of rock & roll with individual backgrounds diverse as classical, cowboy, folk, blues and Dixieland. Influenced by some live performances of Doc Watson and Bill Monroe and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band release of “Will The Circle Be Unbroken” in the early 1970’s, they put away the electric amps and guitars and developed a unique acoustic/bluegrass style. They never completely abandoned their musical roots and have blended Irish fiddle tunes with American country, big band, novelty and space-aged Grateful Dead inspired jams.

Please call to reserve seats.
