MEET THE  BAND

Dusty - Lead Vocals / Rhythm Guitar

(Hey gang!) Dusty here!
    I got interested in music at the early age of 6. Watching Ricky Nelson, Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard, I decided what I wanted to do. Playing for years on my own, I started my first band at 16 called the “Livin’ End”. Rock and Roll was big in those days, but my heart wasn’t in it. I played the Philly and Jersey clubs for the next 5 years before deciding I wanted to do something different, so I did. I went country, and the gigs came out of the  woodwork. So I put together “The Dusty Roads Band” in 78’, and I got to open for many stars along the way from New York to Nashville. I love what I do, but I also love huntin’, fishin’, four wheelin’, and spending time with my wife Cindy, not necessarily in that order. Of course! Country rock/ Rockabilly and Oldies are my favorites also, with a few outlaw and classics thrown in. I am playing with 3 talented pro’s who love to keep every show “uppity and electrifying”. We are “The Dusty Roads Band!” I thank my mom and dad for showing me those 3 chords on the guitar when I was a kid. That’s something I’ll never forget!
                                                                           “Love ya’ll”,
                                                                           See ya’ at the gig!
                                                                           Dusty

    BRETT STERLING GRIFFITHS                                            
born on April11, 1970. he took Piano Lessons at Age.6 the school drum program in the 4th grade, cello shortly after, (And short lived-it's a Little to Big to be carried. All the way to and from the Bus stop.) And guitar at age 12.

Through junior high and High school, he played in the concert band, jazz band and marching band, while taking music theory classes. His teacher, band leader and mentor, Reds Winzer turned him on to an ever-widening path of jazz and classical music.

While at home, our little youngster was introduced to weather report, Todd Rundgren, King Crimson, Jethro Tull, and Al Dimeola through his aunt. Her's and Red's influences forever shaped this young musician into a skillful, one of a kind performer.

Fast forward through the next twenty plus years, he's drumming and pickin' for whoever needed a hand. (or two) recording with original performers, hosting open-mic nights and playing rock, funk, and folk covers, in a number of different settings, giving him the versatility that prepared him for..."The Dusty Road's Band" "Well...That and a hat!" He'll see you at the gig!
