ABOUT

We have a 4-piece Bluegrass/Americana band based in Folsom, CA, a continuation of a band that played in the Washington, D.C. area for 10 years with two of the same members. We're looking for a regular band member who plays dobro or lead acoustic guitar (or both), would also consider banjo. Ability to add a 3rd harmony would be ideal but not required. We play a limited number of gigs, focusing on festivals, fairs, and concerts (and wineries & breweries as needed). All gigs are paid. Some are out of town. The Folsom version of the band is new, first gig was June, 2023. The D.C. version of the band played over 100 gigs.
