In the beginning, “The Grackles” was a performance name worn by Matthew Lyons and Evan Hall during their 6th Street busking days while attending The University of Texas at Austin. Every weekend they would gather up the Burnt Orange Bluegrass Club and play their hearts out at the corner of Red River and Sixth. Now relocated to the DFW area, Matthew and Evan quickly formed a new team around them to create The Grackles Bluegrass Band. Since launch, they’ve played a variety of venues from Hop & Sting Brewery to The Frisco Rail Yard. Filled with bluegrass classics, high energy, and witty stage banter; you won’t want to miss this talented group of musicians.
