Artists:Briarwood
From WWR

The Acoustic Group Briarwood, named after a famous street in Bluegrass heaven, the Rue de Briarwood in Paris, France, consists of musicians hailing from wildly different geographical and musical backgrounds. Their eclectic musical selection is a product of the interaction of their diverse ears -- Craig has long Scotty ears, while Chris has cute little nurse ears, and Joe's ears are hardened to the sound of young twins. As a result, in a Briarwood performance, one might hear Bill Monroe segue into Rufus Thomas into Keith Richard into Iris DeMent into Trad R. Briarwood.
Band members
The ever-so-cute Chris Finn does a lot of singing and plays a mean mandolin and ukulele. She has studied with Jack Tuttle and Trad. R. Briarwood. A long-time Californian, she says, "dude" a lot.
Our newest and youngest (to Craig's dismay) band member, Gail Reese, sings beautifully and has tamed the wild and woolly fiddle. She studies with Jack Tuttle, Chad Manning, and now, the legendary Trad. R. Briarwood. When it comes to playing music, certain friends have called her easy, since she'll jam with practically anyone, anywhere. The band finds her mighty easy to play with, so that's all right.
The frighteningly attractive Craig Sutherland is Briarwood's front man and guitarist/vocalist. He loves microphones, and has at least one in every room of his house. Craig is the author of the "Doctor Dean" song, as heard on the Doctor Dean Edell Show on April the 8th, 2002.
Lonesome Topher Gayle plays a bunch of instruments, at a whim. Sometimes he even plays them at audiences. Sometimes, he fills in on mandolin, mandola, guitar, and ukulele, but most of the time it's bass - he's a Jack of all strings, master of none. He really likes to abuse genres, so watch out for the occasional funk or soul tune coming out of his instruments.
Papa Joe Buczek plays banjo and resonator guitar. When he's not playing with Briarwood (or maintaining this web site), Joe plays pedal steel with the alt-country band, Old Spice Boys..
