J.W. Brown came to Grit City Grass as a triple threat: he writes many of the songs for the band, anchors the low end with precision and feeling, and owns a clear, smooth tenor lead voice that’s a high lonesome head-turner. J.W.’s soulful songwriting draws from both his life experiences and his creativity, and remains firmly anchored in the best of the bluegrass tradition. He plays upright bass in the band, although he is also a gifted guitar picker. J.W. won first place in the male vocal category at the VFMA festival in Chesterfield, VA and the judge's award two years in a row at the Maury River Fiddler's Convention. His father gave him a guitar on his twelfth birthday and he has been playing and writing ever since. In addition to his musical parents, he has been inspired by John Duffey, John Starling, and Russell Moore. He has two grown children and lives with his wife Pam in Culpeper, VA, where they own a barber shop. |
