Fred Anderson is from Crozet, Virginia. He has played the guitar since the age of fourteen, and the mandolin since he was twenty. Although he started out playing folk and rock music, he has since developed an obsession for Bluegrass. For the past six years, he has been playing consistently with several Bluegrass bands including Middletown, Valley Road, Backroads, and Saddle Back. He is a multi-instrumentalist who can play smoking breaks on mandolin, guitar, and dobro. Fred contributes a strong baritone to most Grit City Grass songs, and sings lead on some songs. He won first place at VFMA in Chesterfield, VA for dobro. He writes great instumentals for the band and has a talent for arranging songs--an important ingredient in the unique sound of Grit City Grass. He has two bachelor's degrees and teaches high school Spanish. He is fluent in English, Spanish, and French. He lives in Charlottesville, Va with his wife Vari and son Julian. Vari recently received her master’s degree in counseling. |
