The Bald Mountain Rounders are a Bluegrass band offering
audiences many pleasant surprises.
From the up-tempo
contemporary arrangements of bassist John Shafer to the down home
humor of Robin Smith playing mandolin, the traditional sounds of
country music sung by Jack Honerkamp playing guitar are rounded out
by regionally acclaimed folklorist Norm Martin playing the five
string banjo. Audiences connect with the tight vocal harmonies of
this group who sing their way into the hearts of multi-generational
audiences with music from by-gone eras as well as stylings of
contemporary genres.
With over 120 years of combined musical experience the Bald
Mountain Rounders unique act offers
a show that always
leaves audiences wanting more. Their traditional Bluegrass sound
evokes images of cool summer evenings in the Great Smoky Mountains
of Appalachia to lovers crossing the wide rolling prairies of the
grasslands to the spiritual connections of the Black Hills of South
Dakota.
All of the Bald Mountain Rounders live in the small town of
Chadron in the Pine Ridge area of the Panhandle of Western Nebraska.
Some people think it is the middle of nowhere but when they
hear the sound of this band they know they are in the
center of everything. The Bald Mountain Rounders demonstrate that
there is a good life “behind the corn curtain”.
The Bald Mountain Rounders are proud members of the Nebraska Arts Council
Touring Program, and will play festivals, concerts, and other
events
