"Some
bands are fun to hear and watch.
Some bands are made up of great players.
Blackstone Valley Bluegrass is both."
Together almost 11
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 give up 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!

Telegram and
Gazette
writes; “Debut” is
an acoustic stunner, bursting with fast-flying notes
and sturdy vocal harmonies............no matter
which direction the band chooses for an approach,
the performances are inevitably crackling with an
energy one is more accustomed to hearing from a
stage than from stereo speakers. " See our
