James Reams & The Barnstormers provide a high-energy performance of hard-core bluegrass music (including original songs) and have proven to be real crowd pleasers. With legendary fiddler Blaine Sprouse joining the band as a featured performer for selected west coast venues, the audience is treated to brilliant fiddling matched by blazing banjo and mandolin pickin’ plus vocals from James that reviewers say “echo his heroes Lester, Carter, and Red.” Celebrating 20 years as a bandleader in 2013, James is taking his band on a Coast-to-Coast Celebration tour and plans to release the long-awaited DVD documentary “Making History with Pioneers of Bluegrass” soon. If you want a hard-working nationally known band that delivers an edge missing from a lot of bluegrass nowadays, then James Reams & The Barnstormers are the band for you!
