Start with the classic string band lineup of guitar, mandolin, banjo, fiddle and string bass, stir in a liberal batch of tasty original songs and tunes with influences spanning bluegrass to newgrass to blues to rock to country to jazz, add some tight 3 and 4 part harmony singing, season with choice covers old and new, and there you have the music of Second String Band.

Please visit our memorial page for Bert, which features a selection of some of his favorite Second String Band songs.
