The Harwell Grice Band has been
entertaining audiences throughout Virginia, nonstop, for the past
five years. Their original Bluegrass and Americana
mixed with a large repertoire of traditionals and even a few popular
covers result in a very entertaining show. The Harwell Grice Band
was formed when four friends: Josh Grice, Matt Hubbard, Gabe Robey
and Spencer Young got together back in college and started playing
bluegrass. After playing a few times they started writing and
performing their own material around Radford University (Virginia).
After nearly five years of playing for friends, bars, parties,
weddings and festivals, The Harwell Grice Band has morphed into a
talented and versatile group of musicians, sharing the stage with
the likes of Larry Keel, Seldom Scene, Tony Rice, Blue Highway and
Chatham County Line to name a few. The main songwriter and lead
singer, Josh Grice, has a singing style similar to that of Ronnie
Bowman. Lead guitarist, Gabe Robey, also sings lead and harmony
vocals and makes major contributions to the bands original material
in the way of songwriting. Members Matt Hubbard (mandolin) and
Andrew Kingery (doghouse bass) hold down the rock solid
rhythm section of the band and also contribute with original
material. The latest addition to the band joined in late 2008 and is
no stranger to bluegrass music. Stewart Werner, formerly of Second
Helping, is a banjo extraordinaire that comes to the band as a
seasoned bluegrass musician adding bass vocals and songwriting
ability. The bands musical arrangements and three and four part
harmonies are some of the best in the business. Their lyrics are
both meaningful and honest and reflect a special unconformity while
staying true to the traditions and themes of Appalachian music. With
the release of their debut album "No Place to Call My Home", The
Harwell Grice Band is surely on its way to bigger things. The Harwell Grice Band is: Gabe Robey (guitar/vocals) Josh Grice (guitar / vocals) Matt Hubbard (mandolin) Andrew Kingery (doghouse bass) Stewart Werner (banjo / vocals) |
