About Me

Welcome to Georgia's latest musical surprise, Well Strung.Forged from acoustic jam circles in the Atlanta metro area, Well Strung is an ensemble of young, seasoned musicians that pose an imminently progressive front in the Southeast Bluegrass music scene. Their foundation was built from American roots music, around-the-mic style, encompassing old tyme, gypsy jazz, bluesgrass, outlaw country. Plus, a little bit of motown and rock n' roll thrown in. Due to the band members' varied musical backgrounds, the sound delivers a lively punch along with textured and unplugged instrumental embellishments. Kyle Kiser's resonant and expressive lead vocals, complimented by 4-part harmonies, are a trademark of the band. These qualities provide for a memorable auditory and visual experience, guaranteed to deliver lots of smiles, toe tappin’ and jubilance from any audience.
