You might say Shady Grove was born in the '50s and '60s,
when four young kids first heard folk music.
Chet Rideout (5-string banjo, 4-string banjo, mandolin, vocals)
My early musical training was in violin and, in college, I purchased a mandolin. In 1974, in Indiana, I played mandolin and banjo in a folk duet, The Millrat and the Professor, and led folk sing-alongs at the Indiana Dunes. For several years, I was the lead in a barbershop quartet in Colorado. Now I'm excited to be performing 1960s' folk harmony with Shady Grove.
Larry Costello (guitar, vocals)
I was raised in a family of musicians and learned to play on my grandfather's guitar. Since the age of 5, I've been singing. I've been the lead vocalist in a wide of styles, including folk, rock and gospel. In the '60s, our trio, The Cavaliers, were dubbed "folk singing teen stars" by Bay Area press. No matter where I live, or what I do for a living, I'm always singing!
Don Fristoe (guitar, vocals)
At the tender age of 8, I met my first love—folk music. With the help of Mel Bay's books, a guitar, and some Beach Boy records, I learned the basics of the guitar chords. With no patience to learn rock, I hung up the guitar after a lost year in college. In 2008, a chance meeting with my new neighbor, Larry Costello, reawakened all the memories of those great years of folk music.
Hank Snelgrove (bass)
As a teenager in the '60s, I was part of the Colorado folk scene, playing guitar and harmonica. I did a very brief stint as a rock electric bass player. For the last 30 years, the acoustic double bass has been my instrument of choice. My musical tastes vary: folk, bluegrass, blues, jazz, Latin and Brazilian choro. I started out trying to play like Danny Thompson—and I'm still trying!
