Comin' to you from Rocky Mount, Va the "Moonshine Capital of the World,"... Pickin' Buds was conceived in '07 and is a five piece bluegrass band, formed through the common interest and love of playing bluegrass music. We put together our very first show in
just under three days, adding additional members each day. From the very first show until now, Pickin' Buds have set forth to put on a show for the audience and just plain have fun doing a little
pickin'.
From original tunes, traditional bluegrass, and even a little reggae and blues, we try to incorporate many different styles and influences into our music. We
have established a name for ourselves through live performances and loving friends. We hope to see y'all down the road somewhere, but for now we're just gonna keep on Pickin', Buds.
Pickin' Buds has had the honor to share the stage with Larry Keel and Natural Bridge, The Hackensaw Boys, Two High String Band, Barefoot Manner, Special Ed & The Shortbus, The Harwell Grice Band, Roger Handy & Southern Depot, Old
Habits, The Alliens, The Royal Greens, The Wright Kids, Acoustic Endeavors, Rich in Tradtion, April Michelle Band, Shelton Brothers, TurboPro Project, High Street, Corey Hunley, Barefoot West, Polarity, The Silo Effect, and Kerosene Willy.
The buds have also appeared at such festvals as Camp Barefoot 3, Brewridge Music Festcal, Gemini Fest III, Blue Mountain Bluegrass 3 & 4, Clayton Community Cookout, Pig in the Pen II, and many more.

"The Pickin' Buds prove they have the know how to "pick one" on their original-packed new project "Nothing Left To Say" . Presented with ten original tunes, a standard, and a rock cover - they are a refreshingly honest bluegrass band with a little untraditional surprise of harmonica thrown in for fun. This group holds up the standard for traditionalists, but gives you a few surprises. Nothing is boring here and there is some nice fiddle work by Jeff Arthur."
