Jack is well-known as a former member of the Allman Brother's Band. He is recognized as a world-class blues and jazz guitarist. However, his interests and musical talents are far broader. Jack's late father was an old-time banjo player. Consequently, he has a deep appreciation for old-time and bluegrass music. Indeed, Jack is a fantastic mandolinist with a unique original style. See: www.jackpearson.com for more.
Elizabeth plays bass with her husband in the Jack Pearson Band. She is also both an accomplished classical guitarist and a fine banjoist. In addition to awesome bass lines throughout this project, Elizabeth contributed an authentic two-finger banjo track on "Needlecase".
Shad is a regular on the Grand Old Opry as a member of the Mike Snider String band. He previously played with bluegrass legends, the Osborne Brothers. He is simply one of the best fiddlers and all-around musicians working today.
Debbie is an accomplished and inspired vocalist. She conceived this arrangement of Be Thou My Vision in her request for "Celtic" sounding banjo accompaniment. The approach was to tune the banjo in a unique way (EEAEE)
