STRING THERAPY is a unique collaboration originating in central Ohio in 2001. The heart and soul of the band was certainly set for bluegrass, but the band has reached outside the box in its ongoing search for musical therapy. The talent and high-energy of this multi-directional unit has performed various festivals and venues throughout the Midwest and have shared the bill with the likes of Sam Bush, Tony Rice, Larry Keel, John Cowan, just to name a few. The band covers a broad spectrum of music from Stanley Brothers to Allman Brothers and explores original material that establishes STRING THERAPY as one of todays premiere acoustic acts. Each member of the band is distinct in his own right. And, its this individuality along with over 30 years combined experience that creates STRING THERAPYS impressive musical element.
