LaurelHurst residents had toe-tapping fun at their May Birthday Party.

Rocky Creek Band from Forest City. came to entertain the residents with a full hour of bluegrass music and bluegrass gospel music.

Perry Huskey on bass, Dylan Lewis on guitar and vocals, Trey Hodge on banjo, and Jamie Renfro had their audience clapping their hands and singing along as they sang some old and some new favorite songs.

Band members also were very nice to answer questions about how long they had played together (some had been together since childhood and some were new), how long they had been practicing (since they were young), and what is that little instrument on the end (a mandolin)? One resident made a special point to say that the band reminded him of the music he grew up with and said, “Let’s have them back again real soon.”
