John Graybosch is a unique and gifted song writer. He composes, plays guitar and sings. His melodies are outstanding, original and captivating. You''ll find yourself singing along in no time. Listen to the raw edgy sound of "The Shanty," it has a country swing beat with some of the hottest guitar licks you''ll hear anywhere. And true to his Southern upbringing, he can really tell a country story. Listen to "The Rock Island Line," be sure to listen all the way through or you''ll miss the bands incredible rich vocal harmonies.

In her own words "The only joy that beats singing, is singing in a band with the rest of the Rusty Lugs!
