Country and Bluegrass, Folk & Traditional Arts

The McGovern Stringband is an acoustic americana and bluegrass all string band – featuring the vocals of father & son, Kelly McGovern (guitar) and Brian McGovern (mandolin). The McGovern String Band combines a wide variety of genres with a bluegrass style that is anchored by bass player and vocalist David Morris and Daren Blythe on 5-string banjo. Sam Packard on fiddle and Steve “Fuzzy” Blazek on resophonic guitar, join in when they can. Kelly, David, and Steve are members of the Nebraska Performing Arts Hall of Fame.

Their three part harmonies, combined with a percussive acoustic instrumentation, bring back that legendary high lonesome sound of Bluegrass.
