Keith Garrett and Harold Nixon
With collective stints with Alison Krauss & Union Station (Adam Steffey, John Bowman), J.D. Crowe & The New South (Ron Stewart, John Bowman, Harold Nixon), Blue Moon Rising (Keith Garrett and Harold Nixon), The Isaacs (John Bowman) and most recently The Dan Tyminski Band (Steffey and Stewart), this quintet starts out with an impressive rap sheet. The group will feature Steffey on mandolin, Stewart on banjo, Bowman on fiddle, Harold Nixon on bass and Keith Garrett on guitar. With multiple award winning instrumentalists in the group, expect Stewart to lay down the banjo for the fiddle occasionally, and Bowman to pick up on the guitar during occasional numbers. It's a rare treat to have several strong lead vocalists in the same group, and The Boxcars will benefit from dynamic vocal performances by Garrett, Bowman, Stewart, and Steffey's distinctive baritone. The group will draw from a wealth of original material as both Garrett and Stewart are strong songwriters
"Ron and I had been talking about this for some time", comments Steffey. "We got together with several configurations and landed on one that really clicks. Keith Garrett is such a powerhouse vocalist, and I've known John Bowman since we were kids, and have played a lot of music together.
