The Lost & Found have been favorites of the bluegrass world for over
3 decades. From Ferrum, VA the band was originally formed by Allen
Mills and Dempsey Young. Mills says, “Our name came about because at
the time we were all lost in other bands but found each other
through a mutual love for bluegrass music.” Allen Mills is the bass
player for the band and Dempsey Young is the mandolin picker.
The
Lost & Found have excellent picking abilities and some of the
tightest harmony vocals in the bluegrass world. True professionals
when it comes to putting on a show for the entire family.
“We are looking forward to seeing our many friends in the Tri-Cities
area”, stated Mills “We hope they will all come out to see us”.
The VW Boys delight audiences of all ages with their combination of
music, magic and comedy.
Together for over a decade, the VW Boys are
Tim White on banjo and vocals, Larry McPeak on bass and vocals and
Dave Vaught provides the magic on stage along with his guitar
picking and vocals. “I will be doing plenty of magic at the show
that night”, says Vaught. He is a professional magician as well as
an accomplished musician and there is something for everyone in a VW
Boys show.
The VW Boys performed two years at Dollywood and have
traveled all over the eastern United States entertaining audiences.
Bluegrass, gospel, humorous tunes…the VW Boys have it all!
Come join the fun on the Friday after Thanksgiving!
