We started in classical piano and violin music in 2010. After a few years of playing, our grandparents introduced us to bluegrass music. We then branched out with other instruments: guitar, mandolin, banjo, and upright bass.
We've been traveling around as a band since 2016.
None of our relatives play or sing.
We believe all talent comes from God, and we use ours to minister to others and glorify Him.
A violin has strings and a fiddle has straaangs. :)
No really. They're the same instrument, just different kinds of music. Violin is for classical and jazz while fiddle is for folk, country, and bluegrass.
