A Dayton band playing contemporary and traditional bluegrass
Lemongrass originated in Dayton, OH in 2021 combining family and friends into a five-piece bluegrass outfit. Twin brothers Matt Lemon (fiddle, mandolin, vocals) and Chris Lemon (banjo, dobro, vocals) started playing bluegrass in 2012 as part of the band North & South along with Joe Bowsman. After Joe passed away, they started Lemongrass with Matt's wife Maura (bodhran, vocals) and friend Chip Pritchard (bass) who brought many years of experience from the Repeating arms and church choir. Jeff Martin (guitar) completes the group. Playing style leaves room for instrumental breaks to complement strong vocal harmony.
