Band Bio
Nightflyer, named in honor of Tony Rice's song and album of the same name, consists of a group of talented professionals, hailing from Southwestern Ohio. The band's lead singer and guitarist Richard Propps, consistently receives rave reviews on his powerful and often awe-inspiring vocals (polished by years on the Southern Gospel circuit) and excellent guitar playing. Superb mandolinist and occasional lead vocalist Rick Hayes, spent four years touring nationally with the Gibson Brothers, and received a coveted Highlight Review from Bluegrass Unlimited on his solo CD. Tony Kakaris is the rock solid heartbeat of Nightflyer on the standup bass, lending baritone as well as lead vocals to the group. Tim Jackson adds spice to the mix with his fiery dobro performances, and an occasional baritone. Rounding out the sound is Ronnie Stewart, contributing killer banjo, and sweet lyrical tenor and lead vocals. Each individual is outstanding on their own, but this is truly a band that is greater than the sum of its parts.
