About No One You Know:
West Virginia's foremost up-and-coming Bluegrass band "No One You Know" comes from all over the Mountain State. Members of the band: Don Anderson, Ramie Bennett, Lance Gainer, Bruce Jones, and Rachel Burge, each bring a unique genre of play to each performance.
Don Anderson sings lead and plays the bass. He was a longtime band member of "The Anderson Family". Don is the band's premiere songwriter. Currently, he hosts a Bluegrass radio show "On the Road with Don Anderson" on 104.9 WPDX. The Sunday evening broadcast showcases both professional and local Bluegrass bands.
Ramie Bennett is most recently a member of "Buck and Company", but has been affiliated with other Bluegrass and Gospel bands all over West Virginia. He plays the banjo, and sings both lead and harmony vocals with the band. His "high lonesome lead vocal" cannot be mistaken. Ramie is a phenomenal multi-instrumentalist and a talented songwriter as well. His style of banjo picking will leave you on the edge of your seat.
Lance Gainer supplies both guitar and vocals to the band as well. His highly polished leads and rhythm are sure to catch your ear in one way or another. His guitar picking abilities are in a range of their own. Lance has been affiliated with several bands as well, but most recently with "Buck and Company."
Mr. Bruce Jones plays the resophonic guitar. Although he plays dobro for the group, he is capable of playing a number of other instruments. Bruce was also a longtime member of "The Bluegrass Travelers" and "Break Mountain." He is also a member of another Bluegrass band "Whittaker Station."
Rachel Burge, the bands "leading lady", brings her mandolin expertise and a rock solid chop to "No One You Know." Her lead and harmony vocals help blend the band's intonation into a perfect meld of outstanding tones and pitch. She is a graduate of Glenville State College and holds a degree in Music Education. She also plays with the band "Mountain Fury".
