The Wallace Family is a musical family from the Fort Worth, Texas area. Their shows reflect their unique blend of Texas style old time fiddling, western swing, cowboy, gospel, and bluegrass music. The Wallace''s are a very close family, and playing music is something that they truly enjoy doing.

Brook is a 15-year-old fiddler, vocalist and guitarist who has won many titles and awards with her amazing fiddling including the Jr. World Championship (Crockett, Texas), the Texas State Jr. Championship (Halletsville, Texas), and the National Jr. Jr. Championship (Weiser, Idaho). Not only does she play with her family, but Brook also appears with other country, western, and swing acts when the need for a fiddler arises. Despite her young age, her "on the fly" improvisations and creativity have allowed her to log numerous hours in recording studios as a session musician.

Sally Ann is a 13-year-old vocalist and multi-instrumentalist that has a natural ability to play most any stringed instrument that she picks up. So far, the list includes fiddle, mandolin, guitar, tenor guitar, 5-string banjo, tenor banjo, bass, and non-pedal steel guitar.
Bethany is 11 years old, sings, is a great yodeler, and plays the tenor guitar and fiddle. She likes to sing cowboy yodeling songs.

Caleb is 11 years old and plays both fiddle and bass and loves to sing Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, or Bob Wills music.

Madalyn (Maddie Belle) is 8 years old and cute as can be in her Dale Evans outfits. She is a great singer, yodeler, and fiddler as well.

Paul (Dad) is the anchor of the group with his rhythm guitar. Christy (Mom) sings with the group sometimes, but is primarily occupied with two baby boys, Joshua (born 11/01) and Seth (Born 8/03).
