PRESS RELEASE FROM AWSIPRO MUSIC

01-19-08

The annual Murray State University-WKMS, "Music from A Front Porch" Fund Raiser Concert, this year featuring the Peter Rowan/Tony Rice Quartet, became the perfect forum for Josh Williams, appearing there as a special guest, to announce the lineup, to date, of his new Bluegrass band. The audience of more than 1,000 people responded very favorably as western Kentucky native Josh Williams, multi award winning, former guitarist for Rhonda Vincent & The Rage, introduced his first three sidemen.  They will begin actively touring this spring and summer as “The Josh Williams Band”.

Joining Josh in this new venture will be: former Special Consensus co-alumnus, and close friend Tim Dishman on bass, close boyhood friends, Clayton Campbell, on fiddle and banjoist, Jason McKendree, both western Kentucky natives. One or two more member announcements are expected prior to the new band making its debut appearance at Nashville's world famous "Station Inn”, on February 23, 2008.

Josh, it was no surprise to me that Clayton is joining you. I said when your Dad told me that you were striking out on your own that I bet Clayton would join up with you. He is a wonderful musician and along with Jason will be a wonderful asset to you. You are wonderful and I wish you all the best of luck in the future. You have your mark made in the Bluegrass world already so you are sure off to a good start. Best wishes and we love you. Hope to see you at the Opry real soon.

Your work with Rhonda was GREAT! No reason to think the future will be any less wonderful. Enjoy listening to you sing The Cave and The Last Song. Best wishes on the new "adventure". Protect your voice and those vocal cords - you have a strong and distinctive sound... don't take chances with the world's vices. Will be watching your site for appearances over in the Maryland Virginia direction. Have a cousin near Louisville so I now have and excuse to visit KY more often.
