THE DAVID MAYFIELD PARADE - THU, 5/19

189 Public House | Thu, May 19 @ 8pm | $15

David Mayfield grew up playing bass and touring with his family’s bluegrass band. As a teenager he established himself as a hot picker collecting national awards for his dexterity on guitar and mandolin. He oozed personality on stage and he took his considerable skills and he joined the bluegrass outfit Cadillac Sky, playing sold out shows with British folk revivalists Mumford and Sons. Around then Mayfield began writing his own material and since that time he has toured almost non-stop. Conscious of not just being a musician, but an entertainer, (something his father instilled in him in the family band), he certainly makes an impression live. But it’s the strength of his songwriting and musicianship, combined with that charm and personality that keep audiences lining up to join the parade.
