Unlimited Tradition reunion

Rudy Fest 2008 in Grayson, KY will host a special reunion performance by Unlimited Tradition, featuring the members of the band at the time they recorded their 1998 Doobie Shea CD, She’s Gone.

The June 28 show will feature Ray Craft on guitar, Shayne Bartley on mandolin, Scottie Sparks on guitar, John Lewis on banjo and Jason Hale on bass.

Each of these musicians have made their mark after Unlimited Tradition called it quits in 2000. Ray Craft worked with Rock County, and Bartley with Charlie Sizemore and Dave Peterson and 1946. Sparks is the current guitarist with Lost and Found, with whom Bartley and Lewis have also done some fill in work. Hale is working now with country singer Daryl Singletary.

All the guys are looking forward to the reunion show later this month, and hope to see a lot of friends and fans at Rudy Fest. Full festival details can be found online.
