VAN WERT COUNTY BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL

Vernon McIntyre’s APPALACHIAN GRASS is a bluegrass band with style.  The band delivers an entertaining stage show with driving instrumentals, close knit harmonies, and amusing novelty songs.  Each band member contributes a unique element to the Appalachian Grass. The band is unified by Vernon’s matchless rhythm guitar picking, while Robert Campbell’s hard driving banjo is the backbone of the bluegrass sound. Kitty and her fiddle add a spark of excitement.  Susan’s shimmering mandolin offers another texture in the mix while Tammy’s bass provides the structure for the rest of the band’s musical inventions. Lead vocals rest mostly in Vernon’s capable hands with an occasional song from Kitty, Tammy, or Susan.  The combination of music, energy, showmanship, and humor just can’t be beat.
