Gene and Gayla Mills embody the folk tradition, weaving together strands of bluegrass, country, and folk with original songs – many based on real events and people from Virginia.
Gene is an accomplished flatpicking guitarist, lead singer, teacher, and songwriter with dozens of award-winning songs. Gayla reaches for the heights by playing a dog house bass and singing harmony with a partner a foot taller.
Since the 1980’s, multi-instrumentalist Kent Ippolito has performed and recorded with numerous artists, including Stony Man, John Starling and Carolina Star, Laurie Rose Griffith and Peter Mealy, Stuart Whitford, and Vertical Land.
