The band boasts outstanding acoustic musicians and singers who hail from Haywood County in Western North Carolina. Tim Surrett is pure entertainment as the band emcee, seasoned lead and harmony while holding down the bass line and resonator guitar. He charms with spontaneity, wit and professionalism. A stellar fiddler. Buddy Melton is also one of the most gifted tenor voices in Bluegrass and Americana today. His range and tone give Balsam Range its identify ing sound.
