   About Sons of Ralph
The Sons of Ralph (featuring Ralph) is a band that plays music ranging from bluegrass to cajun, to rock and back! The Band's frontman, Ralph Lewis (mandolin, guitar, vocals) started out playing "mountain music" in the 1940's. From there he has had many groups including, The Lewis Brothers, The Carolina Pals, and The Piney Mountain Boys. In 1974 he got a call to join Bill Monroe's Bluegrass Boys, where he stayed for two years. Seeing his own "boys" wish to play music, he quit Monroe's group to pick with his sons. Marty (guitar, dobro, vocals) and Don (fiddle, banjer, guitar, and vocals) still perform with their dad to this day.

Ralph's motto: "IT'S A PARTY EVERY TIME!"

Members of "The Sons of Ralph" are Ralph Lewis, his sons, Martin and Don Lewis, Cousin Steve Moseley, and the "other brother" Ozzie Orengo, Jr.

Can you name this long haired mandolin player?




The Mountain Express has once again named Sons of Ralph as the “Best Local Band”! (Folk/Old-Time/Bluegrass) Sons of Ralph has been awarded this honor eight of the last ten years, including 2007 and 2008! Thanks to all the fans for the support!

Okay, here's the thang, y'all... I'm doin' a set at White Horse Black Mountain TONIGHT, 3/2/09 from 8-9... I guess this is sorta like an audition... as they wanna see & hear me before they actually use me on one of their shows... & I know this is very last minute, but I'm asking... NO, I'm begging you to come on out tonight & gimme a li'l moral support.


NO COVER tonight! White Horse Black Mountain is a great venue... a smoke-free music hall in downtown Black Mountain with a great house sound system & there ain't a bad seat in the place!

Thanking you in advance for your support...
