Description:
SHARON GRAEFF - (Mandolin) has grown up with music, since her family all played and sang professionally. She can't remember when she first sang with the family band, but it was probably at age 8 or 9. It's been a love affair ever since. Sharon has appeared with far too many country bands and shows to list here, but like her husband Ray, she decided to move over to bluegrass about 15 years ago. After doing local bluegrass shows for several year, Sharon attracted the attention of Lost Highway, and was invited to travel to California to do a CD project with them. It woked great. "Mom's Old Picture Book" won the SPBGMA Album of the year in 2002 and went to #66 on the European charts. She was also voted SPBGMA'S Traditional Female Vocalist of the Year (Traditional) in 2003. Sharon's "ON MY FATHER'S SIDE" has become a fan favorite and is know as her signature song.Matt Allen - Guitar/mandolin,
Max Cooley - Resophonic guitar (dobro),
