Bio
Terry Enyeart & The Steelhead Bluegrass Band
Based in Kitsap County, Washington, this contemporary bluegrass band’s music ranges from a mix of sweet love songs to the hard drive and excitement of traditional, contemporary, and original bluegrass songs. For over a decade, strong vocals and harmonies are the centerpiece of the band, but let’s face it, these folks can pick. You’ll be hard pressed to keep your foot from tapping and your heart from singing along.
Like all “Steelhead”, this band is worth the catch!
Terry Enyeart (Big T)
Guitar and Vocals
Terry has been an integral part of bluegrass in the Pacific Northwest for over 40 years, performing with Downtown Mountain Boys, Rural Delivery, Brother’s Keeper, Me and The Boys and others. He is best known for his rich lead singing and his precise harmony vocals. He is featured on the flat pick guitar but also plays mandolin and bass.
Debbie Enyeart
Bass and Vocals
Debbie picked up the bass more than 10 years ago and lays down the foundation that they all rely on. She figured that since she couldn’t beat them, she would join them. Solid as a rock. Deb also performs with Rural Delivery.
Melody Allen
Mandolin and Vocals
Melody comes from a musical family. Singing and harmonizing has been in her blood from the beginning. She started playing the mandolin by studying with Roger Ferguson and never looked back. As a strong lead singer and harmony singer, she is an important part of the band’s sound.
Marcus Culbert (Red)
Banjo and Vocals
Marcus plays a hard driving traditional bluegrass banjo that will keep your toes tapping for hours on end. His high tenor voice, as a lead and a harmony singer, adds a unique dynamic to the vocal mix.
Jim Bluhm
Dobro, Fiddle and Vocals
Jim grew up in a military family, living in diverse places such as Germany, Alabama, Texas, and New Jersey. He started playing accordion at the age of six and was bitten by the guitar bug at thirteen. Jim studied music in college and later worked full-time playing music on the road. He was the founding member of the OHOP Valley Boys, a Northwest favorite for many years.
