Biography:

GrassStreet, based in central North Carolina, has entertained fans of all ages since 2003. Their mixture of original material and bluegrass standards along with their unique ability to cover musical styles ranging from rock to blues to jazz set them apart from the average bluegrass band. They pride themselves on an entertaining and high energy stage show full of the right balance of musical precision and humor. With influences ranging from the traditional sounds of Flatt & Scruggs to the progressive sounds of Seldom Scene and Tony Rice and with members with backgrounds in bluegrass, country, jazz, rock, and R&B there's always something for every listener at a GrassStreet show.

Press:

“GrassStreet performed before the Bedford 55 & Older Club! They are VERY talented musicians and their music was superb! These four musicians have a chemistry that is captivating and engages the audience into their performance. These guys are the consummate entertainers, and even if Blue Grass isn't your number one choice is music, it will be after their performance! Great audience participation which enhanced our evening!”
Tom Meyer, Activities Director of the Bedford 55 & Older Club, Raleigh, NC

“GrassStreet put on an outstanding show for the Primetimers at St.Andrews Presbyterian Church in Raleigh. At the completion of their performance there was an immediate standing ovation. I had many members come by and say that was the best show we've had in a long time.”
Grady Sykes, Program Chairman

“So enjoyed you all at Seven Gables yesterday. Love Better Times (listend to the cd all afternoon). That is THE song, Wayne. Relish all your originals and the traditionals as well. You guys rock it!!! Hope to see you soon...”
Leonie Burney Harvin Gill - A Fan

“These guys can do it all – smooth harmonies, fiery instrumentals, and rock solid rhythm. But most impressive is the diversity of the ensemble in delivering these elements – they can lock together perfectly into just about any kind of groove you can imagine, from classic hard-driving bluegrass to swing to soulful ballads. Add to this a great stage personality, and you have a band that just can’t be topped. They have a rapport with the audience that comes across almost instantly and sets them back comfortably in their chairs, ready to enjoy the next gem of musicianship that comes rolling out.”
Joe Steiner, Bluegrass DJ, WLFC, Findlay, Ohio - Tri-State Bluegrass Festival Kendallville, Indiana
