| BIO’S OF THE COLEMAN BROTHERS AND THE LONE STAR BOYS The Coleman Brothers and the Lone Star Boys include Craig Coleman on mandolin, Corey Coleman on fiddle, Patrick Stowers on guitar, Jay Hollifield on bass, and Bryan Hollifield on banjo. Craig and Corey formed their first band at the ages of 15 and 12 respectively and started playing shows around Texas. As their popularity grew they were able to expand their travel to include shows all over the south. Craig and Corey shared the stage with groups such as; The Dixie Chicks, Bill Monroe, Ralph Stanley, Alison Krauss, and many others. In 1991 the band was invited to play the Fan Fair in Nashville for the Grand Ole Opry by Mr. Bill Monroe where they entertained a crowd of over 12,000. Jay has been playing bluegrass for 30 years. His styles are rooted in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Southern Virginia and North Carolina. Jay first learned mandolin, then the guitar, and now plays bass for the band. Bryan, a native Texan, began playing mandolin at age 8 and soon developed a love for the banjo. Bryan plays a hard-driving banjo which was heavily influenced by the sounds of Ralph Stanley, J.D. Crowe and Earl Scruggs. Throughout the years the Coleman Brothers have kept their vow to play traditional, hard-driving Bluegrass music. Brother Harmonies and traditional instrumentation make The Coleman Brothers and the Lone Star Boys a valuable asset to any musical event. Craig and Corey and all of the Lone Star Boys look forward to working with you. Contact information: Corey Coleman 12140 Yarbrough Ln.
