The Band

image2 (1).jpeg

   Formed in 2010, Junction 280 has undergone many changes in its makeup and sound.  Beginning in late 2024, we have "reformed" and are now comprised of Robbie Laughter on Banjo, Cliff Searcy on Dobro & Mandolin, Dan Rickert on Guitar, and Barry Walker on Upright Bass.  Utilizing the unique contributions of its members, the band has stepped up to a different level.    Dan Rickert is our newest member and has a distinctive guitar vibe which promises to deliver a unique sound to the band.  Cliff Searcy is a delightful musician who keeps everyone on their toes, and adds wonderful humor to the mix.    Original members Robbie Laughter on Banjo (and one of the few banjo players who can sing while playing) and Barry Walker holding down the rhythm on Bass, round out  this exciting new rendition of Junction 280.

  The group is booking limited gigs at venues in the Henderson County area, playing traditional bluegrass, americana, folk, rock and gospel music.  One thing that stands out to most folks who experience Junction 280 is that "these boys have a lot of fun" and "aim to entertain their audience" with solid vocals and instrumental ability.

   Catch the band at a locale near you or call to book a private event.  We are all about pleasing our audience and having fun in the process.
