Biography

Imagine three friends, who have been friends for 30 years, who are musicians,
good musicians, with a ton of experience who used to talk frequently about cutting
a CD, something for their kids and grandkids, but were on different paths. They
just so happen to play the Mandolin, Banjo, and Dobro. Then add a fourth friend
who plays the Guitar, who loved their idea, and just kept at them to get together
and refused to let go of that idea! Finally, when playing for another band leader,
they added a Bass player who is the icing on the cake, so to speak. Enter a ‘new’
band, this year, The Roxboro Connection.
After all this time, The Connection has self-produced a CD Album, Making The
Connection,. The
members of the band, and their performance contributions are: Cliff Waddell –
Guitar, Bailey Moore – Bass, David Nance – Dobro, Ronald Smith – Banjo, and
Ricky Stroud – Mandolin & album Producer.
