Hudson Valley Bluegrass ExpressAbout the band:

The members of Hudson Valley Bluegrass Express were a bit surprised when Jimmy Sturr showed up at one of their shows and praised the band for their vocal harmonies and tight arrangements of popular bluegrass songs. The Hudson Valley Bluegrass Express have been building up excitement with their creative renditions of bluegrass, rock, and folk songs since their formation in 2015. When lead vocalist and fiddle player Doctor Romo met bass player Mike Aiese and banjo player Thomas Earl at a bluegrass jam in 2015 they quickly realized they had similar tastes in music and decided to work on some bluegrass tunes. This quickly led to playing local venues. When Thomas Earl left the band he was replaced by guitar virtuoso Matthew Lamborn who brought his vast repertoire of songs to add to the band’s already rich cache of songs. Fans requested many other songs so the band adapted their cache of songs to include Country, Folk, Cajun, and rock tunes all played with “bluegrassy” roots. From the unique blend of Dewey Balfa/Charlie Poole fiddle rifts to Vince Gill/Albert Lee guitar twangs to Bill Monroe inspired bowed bass lines the trio’s vast experience and musical tastes show up loud and clear. The Hudson Valley Bluegrass Express has their sights on performing throughout the Hudson Valley and their shows have not only a high level of excitement and fun but historical relevance one can only appreciate live.
