A new Country Gentleman

Event Details

It’s babies, babies, babies this morning on Bluegrass Today!

We just heard from Rick Briggs, banjo player with Bill Yates’ Country Gentlemen Tribute Band, with news of another new arrival.

“Eric Troutman (our bass man) and his ‘much’ better half Kristal received a gift earlier this month!

Waylon Eugene Troutman was born at Harrisburg Hospital on October 6 at 8:11 a.m.  He was a big boy – 9 lbs 9 ozs., 21 1/2 inches.

He is the Troutman’s second child, joining older brother Wyatt Owen Troutman who is four.

Everyone is doing great!”

Many congratulations to Eric, Kristal and Wyatt!
