The Dusty Drifters have a bluegrass addiction

August 15th, 2010 by Cheryl

Local bluegrass band The Dusty Drifters have been rapidly gaining popularity since the Spring of 2010 and each Sunday night of late – they have been sharing the their talents and in fact the stage itself, at Irene’s Pub in Ottawa.

Expect some of the ‘unexpected’ from this band of bluegrass players who will have you up on your feet dancing at their jam sessions!

Band members include: John Steele – Banjo Voice, Gilles Leclerc – Mandolin Voice, Michael Ball – Upright Bass Voice,  Stu Rutherford – Dobro Voice, PJ Baker – Guitar Voice  and  “Pauly” Roberto – Guitar Voice.

Emma Godmere spent a few moments chatting with Pauly at the Ottawa Folk Festival, and learned about his major bluegrass addiction.
