Blackstone Valley Bluegrass
Steeple is excited to welcome back this dynamic local group!
Some bands are fun to hear and watch
Some bands are made up of great players.
Blackstone Valley Bluegrass is both.
Together almost 10 years, Blackstone Valley Bluegrass features renown
banjo picker Dave Dick, his brother Bob Dick on guitar, Dan Nowlan on
mandolin and Ken Taylor on upright bass. Blackstone Valley plays great
bluegrass music; the fast ones fast - and the slow ones - with lots of
feeling.
Bob, Dave, Dan and Ken have all played in lots of other bands - some
nationally famous such as Salamander Crossing, Northern Lights and
Front Range - but it is together in Blackstone Valley Bluegrass where
they really shine. Good friends all, they have the best time when
they’re on stage. Jokes fly as fast as the notes, the boys swap
blistering solos and even instruments, and they harmonize like the
angels. They might even eschew the microphones and walk into the
audience to lead a gospel number before the set ends, which no matter
how long is always way too soon.
If you love bluegrass music and love a good time, you owe it to
yourself to catch the Blackstone Valley Bluegrass Band live. Their
audiences always have a blast, guaranteed!

Walter Crockett and the Wannabee Wabbits

Dick on bass, and "The Immortal" Francis X. McConville on mandolin,
plus noted Oxylesson Dave Dick on banjo and electric guitar.
