Red Barn Radio welcomes award-winning musical duo Adrian and Julie Shepherd-Powell of Lexington. Adrian Powell, a native of Crimora, VA, has won contests at fiddler's conventions all over the southeast. His fiddle style is straight forward with a hard drivin' bow and he currently plays with the Pea Ridge Ramblers, Matt Kinman's Old Time Serenaders, and the Cabin Creek Boys. One of his most recent awards includes First Place in the Old Time Band competition with the Cabin Creek Boys at the 2008 Old Fiddlers' Convention in Galax, VA.
Julie Shepherd-Powell is an award-winning clawhammer banjo player and flatfoot dancer originally from North Carolina. Julie previously taught beginning and advanced old time banjo at Mountain Empire Community College in Big Stone Gap, VA. She has also played with Letcher County band Rich & the Poor Folks. Julie currently competes in flatfoot dance competitions at fiddlers' conventions all over the southeast and calls square dances anywhere from Knoxville to New York City. Be prepared for foot stomping and hollering when you listen to Adrian and Julie-you'll find it hard to stay in your seat!
