Some guys are always busy. Never content to be doing just one thing, Uncle Phil Leadbetter is one of those busy people. He currently performs as a member of the award winning band Grasstowne, but Uncle Phil has decided to fill up his schedule by offering a series of mini-concerts and workshops in Flordia during the first part of March 2010. He’s teamed up with former Newsouth band member Richard Bennett for this run.
The two are longtime friends who enjoy playing together. The two were both part of J.D. Crowe’s band in both 1994 and ’95 when Flashback was nominated for first a Grammy and then IBMA Album of the Year. Since that time Phil has gone on to win numerous IBMA and SPBGMA awards.
Phil tells us these venues are small and space will be limited, so those interested in attending the concerts and workshops should call ahead to make a reservation.
Here’s the schedule.
