Beatlegras

Imagine the music of the Fab Four shaken up with infusions of bluegrass and jazz and topped off with a classical twist. The result: a satisfying musical cocktail called Beatlegras.

A longtime Dallas musician, Dave Walser was a music director for numerous area churches for many years. Today he owns and operates Blue Moon Recording and Post, where most of the Beatlegras CD was recorded.

George Anderson has been playing classical upright bass since junior high, which he now plays occasionally for the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. He has also played with such notables as Ray Charles, Ella Fitzgerald and Woody Herman to name a few. His jazz album Faces was listed for a Grammy Award in the spring of 2003 and he is much in demand for his smooth jazz and R&B sound.

Milo Deering is a virtuoso player of stringed instruments, including the mandolin, fiddle, guitar and dobro. He is in constant demand as a session player and also as a composer. Milo has toured with Lee Ann Rimes and other well-known artists. You’ve probably heard his fiddle playing on the infamous Motel 6 theme song (“We’ll leave the light on for you”), which he also co-wrote. He even graced the silver screen in a cameo in the Sandra Bullock movie Hope Floats.
