Billy and Bryn Bright first met at Berklee School of Music in 1995. Bryn, a bass student at Berklee, lived below Billy and his roommate Brian Smith. She went upstairs to complain about the noise and wound up joining them in a bluegrass jam session. Bryn was in a jazz studies program and had never played bluegrass before but within weeks the three were playing locally as the Two High String Band.
A move to Texas in 1997 introduced the couple to Peter Rowan and soon they were touring the country with him as the Texas Trio. It was through Rowan that they met bluegrass legends Tony Rice and Vassar Clements. Rowan, Rice and Clements along with ex-Bad Liver Danny Barnes and fiddler Eamon McLoughlin joined Billy and Bryn on their self-titled debut album for Blue Corn Music.
An all-instrumental affair, Bright mixes traditional bluegrass with some elements of the emerging 'jamgrass' sound. As would be expected the playing is impeccable. What might not be expected is the variety in the songwriting reflecting influences that include the Clash, Primus, Jerry Garcia and Norman Blake.
Billy and Bryn are currently touring with Brian Smith and Geoff Union as the Two High String Band. They also continue to tour with Peter Rowan and Bryn is currently playing bass in Old and In The Gray with David Grisman, Rowan, Herb Peterson and Vassar Clements and occasionally with the Tony Rice Unit as well. read more.
