Blue Highway graced the stage of the Ark in Ann Arbor, Michigan Sunday evening for the first time in the band’s 18 year history. They were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd.
The band played two sets of mostly original Blue Highway music that delighted the audience.
Tim Scheerhorn was among the guests. Rob Ickes has played Scheerhorn resophonic guitars for the past 22 years. Rob is the 13 time and reigning IBMA Dobro Player of the Year. Rob did his own breath-taking rendition of The Old Rugged Cross.
Jason Burleson and Shawn Lane showed the crowd their multi-instrumental skills. Jason played banjo, guitar, and mandolin. Shawn played mandolin, guitar, and fiddle.
Wayne Taylor brings the writing skills of all of the band members to life with his vocal skills.
