Meet the Band

mark krider

Banjo man Mark Krider has deep bluegrass roots from the mountains of North Carolina where he grew up listening to and playing bluegrass music. “You might say its in the water there”.  He has played banjo and guitar for 50 years now. Krider has formed bands wherever he has lived, from North Carolina, to Tennessee, and Arizona. Mark has shared the stage with The Osborne Bros, Country Gentlemen, Lewis Family and Blue Highway. Wanting to keep the traditional sound going, he formed HillBilly Fever in 2018.  Mark now calls Texas home where he lives with his wife Sue.

Justin Smith has joined HillBilly Fever on guitar and lead/tenor vocals. He began playing guitar at age 12 and has performed with numerous bluegrass and gospel bands throughout Texas and Oklahoma. Justin now brings his experience, strong vocals, and driving guitar style to HillBilly Fever.

Daniel David is a mandolin player deeply rooted in the traditional bluegrass style of the genre’s early pioneers. Over the years, he has developed a strong Monroe-style approach to the instrument, emphasizing solid rhythm and driving lead lines. Before moving to Arkansas, Daniel performed with several bands along Colorado’s Front Range, playing at local venues and festivals. Those experiences helped shape his sound and strengthened his appreciation for traditional bluegrass music. Today, Daniel brings energy, precision, and a deep respect for the roots of bluegrass every time he plays. 

Adam Bachman is from Tigerville South Carolina originally and now resides in Asheville North Carolina. He has played resonator guitar for over 10 years at historic venues and festivals including the Ryman auditorium, station inn, Merle fest among others. He tours with musical acts including cast iron bluegrass, Wilson banjo company and James Tucker.

While “that thing’s bigger’n she is,” Anne Luna is a true presence on stage and makes playing the bass look easy. Her playing is graceful and elegant, yet precise and hard driving, with a sweet tone that enhances and complements any group she plays with. She is equally at home playing bluegrass, country, Western swing, and even Irish traditional music and jazz.
 
Anne has extensive recording and performance experience having recorded on over 20 albums with a number of distinguished musicians including Alan Munde, Kenny Maines, and Amanda Shires. Most notably, as a member of The Hard Road Trio. Anne released 4 critically acclaimed albums between 2012 and 2019.

S. Osborne

We were pleased with all the bands at our Mt. St. Helens Festival this year (2023), but I want to give a special shout-out to Mark Krider and HillBilly Fever. They have a traditional sound that reminded me of when I saw Jimmy Martin play. It took me back to when I fell in love with the music Their band was very professional and I would recommend them to anyone who is considering putting on an event.
