David Lawson - "The Voice"
Dave is our new male vocal talent. He was instrumental
in the formation of the band in that way back in the 80's he took Rick to
Branson were he was inspired to learn the banjo which led to the formation
of the Mountain Men. Little did
he know...
Mike is our virtuoso guitar player. He has traveled the
world in pro rock bands in his previous life - you may now him from
bands such as "Say Uncle", "Tora Tora" or "Skeleton Crew".
Banjo player. Favorite movie - "Oh Brother Where Art Thou". He can clear a crowded room using only a banjo.
Bass and guitar player. Rich is son of the banjo player. (Mama's don't let there sons grow up to play banjo!) He has turned out amazingly well, in spite of his musically dysfunctional family back ground.

Dave was our original bass player. He is now pastoring a Church in Indiana. We recently did a road trip to play at his Church. It was a blast.
Emily sang vocals and played various instruments. Like her dad she is mutli-talented.
John played upright bass and just about anything else - he can get his hands on - piano, guitar, mandolin, dulcimer. He can actually read music! He often leads music at his Church.
