I play banjo for Dale Ann Bradley and the Randy Kohrs Band. The bands have a great sound and a wonderful group of musicians... great fun!
I started with a Scruggs base and added a melodic and
chromatic twist.One of my
greatest banjo influences as a teenager was Mike Snider.His tasteful playing seemed like the
right way to play.I love his
playing style yet today.
I strive to play clean yet tasty banjo.In May of 2007 I released my debut CD
entitled Winds of Winfield.Supplying their tremendous skills on the CD is Grammy Award winning Randy Kohrs, also Grammy Award winning Cody
Kilby and Andy Leftwich.Cody also
engineered the CD at his studio in Nashville, TN with the assistance of Grammy Award winning Phil Harris.Bryn Davies supplied
powerful bass playing talent to finish off the instrumental melodies.
I had the chance to travel the contest circuit and meet some
amazing bluegrassers!It's a
privilege to play music and share the passion that goes with the language of
music.
"It seems like everyone's got a plan... it's like Nashville, with a tan..." you know that song? It's about the music industry in L.A. I just wish artists had a better chance of making their work known. I keep thinking the internet will help, but I doubt it. Well, Happy Month! We Greeks say that every first of the month!
Mike, Thanks a ton for the add! You are absolutely AMAZING on that 5 string! Just messaging Randy on Face Book the other day too. You guys stay safe out there and I can not wait to pick some with you down the road somewhere.

Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe.

I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
Christian
