Like many bluegrass bands, Rock Bottom Bluegrass Band began as
a group of friends picking for fun. What started as a Thursday night
“pickin’ session” has evolved into a full-fledged band effort taking them
to six states and producing five recordings. After ten years, the band
maintains a busy schedule performing at festivals, concerts, corporate outings,
and numerous private functions. With an emphasis on vocal harmonies, Rock Bottom Bluegrass Band plays a variety of old standards, progressive bluegrass, bluegrass gospel, and original material. The band consists of:
At different times you will hear John, Dale, Loyd, or Butch on
lead vocals. Loyd handles most of the tenor singing, with help from John, while
baritone vocals are shared by Dale and Butch. Occasionally, you will catch Mack
adding a bass line. The vocal blends provide the band with a unique sound and
wide range of musical possibilities. Ashe County, in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, is home to Rock Bottom Bluegrass Band where the band members live within a five mile radius of each other.
