This recognition highlights his talent and dedication to the craft\, making him a sought-after collaborator in the music industry.\n\nBanjoist Marshall Gray is a native of Lynchburg\, Va and currently resides in Haw River\, NC.  Marshall was exposed to bluegrass and old time at an early age through local acts\, seeing the Reno and Smiley show on TV each morning\, and annual family visits to Galax Fiddlers convention.  He attended East Tennessee State University where he fell into a hotbed of bluegrass\, including taking the then one hour bluegrass band class (which has now become a full program). His primary banjo influences are Sammy Shelor and Ron Block.  Marshall completed a military career but was able to squeeze in working with bands such as Atlanta based\, Pilgrims; VA’s Deja Moo; and Triangle’s White Pine Hollow\, and The String Machine.\nCome out and enjoy an eclectic repertoire best described simply as\, “Splittergrass”!\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor information about High Lonesome Strings Bluegrass Association and today’s band visit \nhttp://www.highlonesomestrings.org/ \nWine\, beer\, and non-alcoholic beverages will be for sale.  Your purchases are what enables us to host great live music in our community!  Thank you in advance for your patronage. \n
