For what it’s worth, there’s a band called Natchez Trace.

I found that in itself kind of interesting. However, I have yet to learn why they named their band Natchez Trace. Especially since they’re out of Michigan.

Here’s what I know about the band…

Natchez Trace, the band, performs “acoustic classic rock”.

They’ve been around since the ’70s.

The band includes 2 original members: Ronn Burke and Steve Damstra and 1 new member: Robin Spring.

They perform a lot. But mostly only in western Michigan (Grand Rapids area).

From their site:

Feel the Natchez magic of acoustic guitars, bass and big harmony as Beatles, Badfinger, Mamas and Papas, Fleetwood Mac and Crosby Stills Nash songs bring back memories of the good times you’ve had.”

Check ’em out… I’d encourage you to have a listen to their music.

  1. Lynnette, You need to go to Natchez Traces web site http://WWW.NATCHEZTRACE.US I’m just friends of them for 30+ years. You would just LOVE their music. You would think they would fit right in in one of the Natchez Trace Festivals down your way. They sure make our festivals great. Doug Taylor

    • Hey Doug,
      I Just rebuilt an old Optimus Pro 4000 speaker that someone threw out. I’m listnening to the “Shortrest Girl” on it right now. It sounds great. I’d love to get copies of that DVD. Here’s my email Maxquig@sbcglobal.net.

  3. I saw Natchez trace at cannonsburg ski lodge this week end, and think that this is the best band that I have ever seen in this area, I am really sad to here that the base player is retireing soon. I would follow this band, and tell all my friends about them. I wish that I have heard of them sooner. To the base player! I realize that you need to do what you need to do, and you have been playing a long time, and want to enjoy life. But I am writing you to let you know, that you are needed, and will be missed. I do hope that you find some time to for you, but realize how much you have touched peoples lives along the way! The three of you, are a team of very great artists! Your music is the best in the area!!!!! I am new to you, and hope to be able to follow you in the future. Best wishes to you all Dave
