Chain Station is a 4-piece, high-energy, get 'em out on the dance floor string band from the front range of Colorado's Rocky Mountains. They've become known for catchy and lyrically-poignant original songs that flow from the mountains, through them and right back to you!
The music of Chain Station is well-steeped in Americana roots. Their vocal harmonies are high, lonesome, and tight. Their picking ranges from lightning-fast to mountain mellow. They are a bluegrass band that would satisfy a picky old-timer and delight fans of newgrass, a delicate balance indeed.
Their live shows have become that of legend, with energy and stage antics that guarantee one hell of a night out. Equally comfortable rocking a concert hall, a packed club, or a mountain holler, this band gets after it...with style.

He teaches improvisation, composition and fiddle styles privately and at music camps across the US.
