Allen Ray
Mandolin
and Baritone Vocals
Allen
hails from Creedmoor, NC and is the newest member of the Cadillac
Stepbacks...well, sort of. We've actually been pickin' with Allen
at every bluegrass jam in the area for more than two years. He is
one of the best pickers around. He knows every tune you can think
of and he'll play them with you all night long if you'll let him.
Allen
is the son of the locally well known Robert and Peggy Ray, who also
happen to be some of the nicest people we know. Their family has
been deeply connected with the North Carolina bluegrass scene for
years. Pretty much everyone who's anybody in Eastern North Carolina
bluegrass music has picked at "The Rays" at some point.
Allen has played music in this setting for most of his life. Bluegrass
is in his blood, sure as anything we've ever seen, and we're glad
to have him as a part of The Cadillac Stepbacks.
Allen
also plays with his family band Sourwood Mountain and he has played
with many other bands in the area including the Constant Change
Bluegrass Band of eastern North Carolina.
