New Grass Express is a popular band based out of Chattanooga, Tennessee, who began their extraordinary journey playing bluegrass music together in 2011. This energetic group of very experienced musicians/singers play hard-driving contemporary and traditional Bluegrass/Gospel music capturing the very essence of the bluegrass genre’ and beyond.
Additionally, their sincere gospel message along with their “honor tribute” to all Veterans and Active-Duty Service members alike, sets them apart as a musical group during each and every performance. Their distinctive harmonies, coupled with their “fast pickin’” undoubtedly makes even the staunchest of listeners tap their toes and smile. Their intention is to touch hearts, lift spirits and hopefully take the audience away from the world’s stresses that encompass everyday life.
Christy Tankersley, Matt Gardner and Steven Graham spend hours together each week rehearsing or performing in an on-going attempt to hone their musical skills as a group. Christy is from Soddy Daisy and sings melodies, harmonizes and picks her banjo with such passion and skill that it sets the pace for each and every song. Matt is from Nashville and his amazing talents singing and playing his acoustic guitars bring a fresh delightful sound to this group. Steven is from Chickamauga, Georgia and sings melody, harmony and plays the upright bass he fondly refers to as Isabel. These three musicians work very hard as professionals to bring the best performance possible for their “family friendly” audience. Thank you for considering New Grass Express to entertain at your next social event.
