Steve Haywood 812-863-2885

(Mandolin and Vocals) - Steve lives in Greene County, IN with his wife Belinda and their three children. He got his first mandolin on Christmas morning at age 11. He taught himself guitar at 14. Steve recalls as a young teenager riding his bicycle, with his mandolin under his arm, to jam with Terry Eldredge (of the Grascals) at Terry's house. (Who would have thought?) He spent a lot of night hours playing along with records of the Monroe Brothers, Flatt & Scruggs, Roy Acuff, and such. "One of my biggest musical thrills was performing on stage at Bean Blossom in 2005 with some good guys from Kentucky. Just think of all the great Bluegrass stars that had set foot on that stage."


Greg Brown 812-849-6325

(Guitar and Vocals) - Greg started playing guitar and mandolin at age eight when his dad, who also plays guitar, brought home an old fiddle and told him not to mess with it. His dad went to work. When he returned home, he caught Greg picking the fiddle. He whipped him a good one. The next day his dad went to town and returned with a mandolin and told him to pick that. His influences include Carl Story, Roy Lee Centers, and Junior Blankenship. He prides himself on his vocal ability and knowledge of bluegrass lyrics and history.


Don Davis 812-876-5134

(Dobro and Vocals)As a youngster Don played mandolin at church and at after-church functions for several years with the Wells Family. He remembers being taken to Bean Blossom as a boy and listening to Bill Monroe on the old open stage. After many years of being away from music, he was reintroduced to it at a Bluegrass indoor jam in Vincennes, Indiana. (Thanks to Doc Stedman.) His wife bought him a Sonoco Blue Regal Dobro and the rest (as they say) is history! His influences are Phil Ledbetter, Rob Ickes, and Jerry Douglas. He says he likes Phil the best because their bellies are alike. Don's dream is to play on the big stage at Bean Blossom. How about it Dwight Dillman?


Rex Hunt 812-330-8132

(Banjo) - Rex was born in New Jersey and started playing banjo in the early 60's. He played Dobro with Bottle Hill - an early Newgrass band - in the 70's. Bottle Hill had two albums on the Biograph Records label and played many festivals, including Berryville and the Philadelphia Folk Festival. Rex's father played tenor banjo and taught him a little bit of that. He gave Rex his 1934 Gibson Mastertone TB-4 banjo -- his dad's high school graduation present. Rex had it converted to 5-string, but it was stolen in the late 1960's. He now plays a 1928 TB-4 conversion.


Don Baker 765-795-6574

(Upright Bass and Vocals) - Don is number one a family man. His music is second only to this. The bass fiddle was invented for him to enjoy, but hopefully some of the fun will rub off on others. If his listeners enjoy the music half as much as Don does, they are having a great time to say the least. As Don says "bass clef is a low down job but somebody has to do it!" Don also sings leads and baritone with equal enthusiasm.
