We also played gospel and some bluegrass music. The band was situated in the Plattsburgh area of northern New York state. The fiddle section consisted of Donnie Perkins and Phyllis Ezero. The guitar and banjo parts were played by Fred Warner and the stand-up bass was played by Joe Ezero. Phyllis played guitar on a number of tunes.
