SHADOW RIDGE
Scott Powers - Mandolin Born and raised in Claiborne County Tn.in the powell valley area, where I learned to play and sing bluegrass music. I have been greatly influenced by Doyle Lawson, Bill Monroe, Earl Scruggs, J.D. Crowe and Larry Sparks. I have played in several bands all across the country and throughout east Tennessee. Playing Bluegrass Music is my favorite thing to do and I have enjoyed being a part of Shadow Ridge. CF Bailey - Guitar Born and raised in Ewing, Va., the seventh child of eleven, I now make my home in Tazewell, Tn. and work in the real estate industry. I started singing bluegrass and country music when I was around twenty at local events. Inspired by such greats as John Duffey, Doyle Lawson and Jimmy Martin as well as several locals that never sought fame, I joined my first band, The Lee County Ramblers and have been in several bands since. Music is a part of my life, and while work has often taken me away, I am never fulfilled without it. I am so proud and honored to be a part of Shadow Ridge and play with my dearest friends. Barry Hodges - Bass Orginally born in Corbin, Ky., I have made my home in Knoxville, Tn. since 1962. I started playing music in 1968 with a country music band. I greatly enjoy classic country music, but my first love is traditional bluegrass. I hosted the Clinch River Breakdown on WDVX for over three years. My favorite bluegrass group is the Stanley Brothers. I also enjoy playing golf and fishing. I am playing music now with the three best friends I have in the world. These are the best times of my life. I wish it could last forever.! Daniel Oxendine - Banjo Born and raised in Grainger Co, Tn. in which I still reside. Inspired by such greats as Doyle Lawson,Larry Sparks,Jimmy Martin,Country Gentlemen and Traditional Grass. I started playing and singing gospel music in churches at a very early age with my mother and father. I have been playing bass, guitar and banjo since a very young age, and have also written several songs including our current recording, "One Sunday Morning". I play regularly in my church which is a very important part of my life. At 24 years old, I am the youngest member of the band and greatly enjoy playing with three of my best friends in the world. |
