STEEL & WOOD, a traditional Bluegrass band based in Petoskey, offers an upbeat, heartfelt, string and harmony-based repertoire celebrating the works of Bill Monroe, Flatt and Scruggs, The Osborne Brothers and others. Steel & Wood harkens back to American railroad culture and enduring musical traditions rooted in Southern Appalachia.
Their most recent 2-disc, 22 track album, “Songs of Steel and Wood”, including 5 original songs, was released in 2023. - “…the material keeps a consistently upbeat attitude courtesy of a sound that’s driving, determined, and fully fueled by their unabashed enthusiasm… It underscores the band’s agility and ability, and reinforces the fact that Steel & Wood, true to their handle, remain as vital as they are vibrant.” – Lee Zimmerman, Bluegrass Today.
Band members: John A. Neiswander - lead guitar, Irene Kazmers - fiddle/guitar, Dave Eggebrecht - mandolin/fiddle, Paul Bachleda - banjo and Michael Markley on upright bass, look forward to sharing the songs they love!
