MEET THE MORRIS BROTHERS

Brothers By Blood and Bluegrass

Mike and Matt Morris started playing bluegrass music at a very young age.  As brothers they learned together and are self taught.  The elder Mike on banjo and his brother Matt on guitar, have been playing music together for around 50 years.  

A fixture in northeastern South Carolina, they live in rural Aynor west of Conway, playing at parties, churches, small festivals, and jams throughout the region. They have shared the stage  with award winning artists Alan Bibey & Grasstowne, Carolina Blue, and The  Virginia Luthiers Bluegrass Band. The band plays a large selection of classic bluegrass covers, original songs Matt has written, and soul-deep gospel music. Mike has worked long and hard to master Reno-style banjo, a difficult style few learn these days.  Tammy Holt on bass has brought stability, planning, and a web presence to the band, while her husband Terry built instruments for three of the members.
