The Hoyles have been performing bluegrass together as a family band for more than 25 years.  Founding members of the band include Eddie (banjo, vocals), Lisa (upright bass, vocals) and Al (guitar, mandolin, vocals).  With Eddie’s hard driving  Scruggs-style banjo along with Lisa’s traditional bass playing and Al’s smooth rhythm audiences have a hard time keeping their  feet still.  The Hoyles  blend together their rich acoustic instruments as they reach a tight family harmony  scarcely achieved by any means other than years of playing and singing together.   Audiences get a feel for that high lonesome sound that is so prominent in bluegrass music as they listen to the Hoyles’ performance. Their love for traditional bluegrass music is evident to all who listen and watch them perform.
