The WellStrung Project

About Me

After six years and many band members, Well Strung is still around and playing all over the great state of Alaska. A classic bluegrass band set up that plays traditional bluegrass and sometimes does a classic country show with Greg Booth on pedal steel and Kliffy Hopson on drums. Well Strung features three part harmonies, fast pickin and dance friendly waltzes. Wellstrung has turned in to an institution for bluegrass pickers. Currently, the line up consists of Todd Grebe on guitar, Joe Page on mandolin, Conor Mcmanimin on bass, with either Angela Oudean on fidlde or Greg Booth on banjo or dobro or both. Either way Wellstrung always provides a rompin good time and you never know who's going to sit in with us (always a good thing). Look for Wellstrung at Alaska music festivals and honkytonks all over Alaska.
