| MUSIC |
Bluegrass, Country, Blues and Rock - I love all genres of music. I think you can learn from everyone and find inspiration in all music if you will just open yourself up to it. |
| BOOKS |
Mostly non-fiction books, but I love the Violet Eyes series by Stephen Woodworth. I always love a good mystery or well-written romance. |
| MOVIES |
I love independent films, documentaries, romantic comedies, and good mysteries. |

| ABOUT ME |
I am a singer from West Virginia. I perform all types of music, but I love bluegrass. I own several instruments, but I best play the piano and bass guitar.
The band is filled with some of the most talented fellows you'll ever meet. Daniel Lilly is our bass player, lead singer and resident comedian. Mark Lilly also sings lead and pretty much plays anything with strings. Steve Sparks is a highly regarded studio drummer and has recorded with noted artists like Russ Hicks and Charlie McCoy. Rad Lewis, our banjo player, was state champion in both WV and OH. And, in some of our shows, we feature John Hamrick on electric guitar (Eddie Van Halen, watch out!). Last, but never, ever, least, the legend Everett Lilly. Mr. Lilly is one of the forefathers of bluegrass music. A former Grand Ole Opry star performing with Flatt & Scruggs, he made his mark on music history performing with his brother “B” as The Lilly Brothers. He was honored by the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) as an inductee in 2002 in their Hall of Honor and along with The Lilly Mountaineers, won their 2008 Recorded Event of the Year award. He was inducted into the WV Music Hall of Fame and the Massachusetts Country Music Hall of Fame. He was the 2009 recipient of the WV Vandalia Award and was recently featured on the cover of Bluegrass Unlimited magazine. |
