Details:
Just as the mythical Phoenix flew as high as it possibly could, burst into flame and then arose reborn from the ashes. . . the same phenomenon occurs with musicians and the bands they perform in. Phoenix Rising appears fresh and new as the result of it''s members performing together in various combinations over the past 30 years.
This particular combination has now gathered together in full force; bringing together the best of bluegrass, cowboy, folk, country, Americana and some incredibly talented songwriting to bring you a sound that is clean, hard driving and uniquely their own. Specializing in weddings, conventions, private parties
and family oriented events, Phoenix Rising aims to provide the sound you are looking for and works hard to provide "extras" to make your event unforgettable!
The Members:
Well known throughout the Northwest for her high energy, entertaining, classy style, Kathy Boyd provides the bass beat and sparkle to Phoenix Rising. She has performed as a member of "something blue. . .", No Strings Attached, Knock ''Em Stiff, The Pickups, The Oops Band, City Council and throughout the Western United States and Canada with various musicians both on stage and in the recording studio. This people lover is also a festival emcee through Uptown Bluegrass, a public speaker for Odyssey Hospice and the Alzheimer''s Association (find out more through Panacea Productions), and a people lover who''s got a ten gallon soul in a two pint body!
This astounding talent is known far and wide for his ability to give any instrument he picks up a personality all it''s own. Tim Crosby has performed with Briarose (for over 30 years!), The Flying O''Carolan Brothers, LuckPenny and throughout the United States with various musicians both live and in the recording studio. Tim has shared the stage with the likes of Bill Monroe, David Grisman, Don Edwards, Baxter Black, and Riders in the Sky. Sharing band emcee duties with Kathy and taking on the duties of fiddle and mandolin player for Phoenix Rising, his playing and songwriting skills form the character of the bands sound. A gentleman truly born 100 years too late, this family man and all around nice guy is also available to teach you all about the instrument you''ve been longing to play.
Our own Dr. Phil of Bluegrass, this master storyteller and remarkable presence is our own lovable dancing teddy bear. Taking on the duties of both banjo and Dobro player for Phoenix Rising, Tom Tower''s playing and song writing skills add a bit of whimsy and fun that is the perfect counterpoint to the playing of his long time friend Tim Crosby. He has performed as a member of Briarose (for over 30 years!), No Strings Attached, Knock ''Em Stiff, The Pickups, and The Sussefusse International Dance Orchestra. Tom has performed throughout the world with various musicians both on stage and in the recording studio. This meditation master, teacher of life lessons and all around great Dad can also be found through the Integral Counseling Institute.
Singing tenor and bringing the “high lonesome” sound to the band, Dennis is the most recent addition to Phoenix Rising. With a background in blues and country rock, he adds his unique sound to the mix by playing lead and rhythm guitar. An accomplished song writer, Dennis has performed as a member of several bands during his travels from Wisconsin to Alaska to Oregon. An amazing harmonica player and all around nice guy, Dennis is our resident airplane pilot and mechanic, and you might also catch him as one of the “instigators” of the Almost Home bluegrass jam held on Saturday evenings in Salem, Oregon.
