The Sawtooth Bluegrass Band is bringing a new face to the meaning of teenage boys putting together a band. Not vanquished by their parents to the garage or basement, these young men are bringing audiences of all ages to their feet at fairs, festivals, opera houses and charity events across the state and beyond.
Bluegrass music brought the two sets of brothers, ages 14 through 18, together over a year ago, and they have become tight knit on and off the stage. Between skiing, fishing, playing video games and traveling together, the boys can be found arranging four-part a cappella gospel numbers and writing original songs. While older audiences enjoy their music selection, it’s not to say that the guys aren’t hip; they enjoy covering the occasional 70’s rock era song.
Tight vocal harmonies and precision picking is getting them recognized beyond Minnesota. They were hired to perform in Branson, MO at Silver Dollar City for the Bluegrass & BBQ Festival for three days in May 2008 (and asked back for next year, too!). They''ve also been contacted twice to participate in nationally recognized band competitions, one of which will be in Nashville next February.
The Sawtooth Bluegrass Band is the Moravec Brothers from Rochester, MN -- Ethan on bass & harmony vocals and Jesse on mandolin & lead vocals, and also the Birtzer brothers from Rosemount, MN -- Clint on guitar & lead vocals, Luke on fiddle & harmony vocals, and finally Shane Birtzer, the band’s emcee, on banjo.
