Keith Stewart
They say big
things come from Texas, which stands to reason for DejaBlue
Grass Band’s newest member. Texas-born fiddler
extraordinaire, Keith Stewart was raised on Georgia ’s
Okefenokee Swamp and edumacated right here at Georgia Tech.
Keith’s musical
pedigree is by far the grandest trump card in the DBGB’s
deck. Get a load o’this: Keith has shared the bill with
Georgia Satellites,
Tracy Bird, and
Kansas , and gigged with
David Allen Coe,
Travis Tritt,
Jerry Jeff Walker. He fiddled
his way through 30 countries over six years touring with the USO. (Some say he’s still bigger than David Hasslehoff in
Somalia , Panama , and Diego Garcia! And in Iceland , they
call him “the Zamfir of the fiddle”!) Whew!
Keith is back to
his bluegrass roots after years of biker rock and
“brown-eyed girl”, and the boy flat out burns up a fiddle
and a mandolin! We are thrilled he has joined the DejaBlue
Grass Band! (Pssst! When you see him next time, ask him
about bein’ blackmailed in the catacombs of the Egyptian
Pyramids, but don’t ask him what happened after they shut
the door.) |
