Deer Creek Sharp Shooters

The Deer Creek Sharp Shooters were formed in 2013 by 6 high school and college friends in Charleston, SC who came together with a common love for bluegrass and a dream to push the limits of acoustic music. Inspired by artists ranging from Del McCoury and Yonder Mountain String Band, to Django Reinhart and John Coltrane, The Deer Creek Sharp Shooters are traditionally minded while keeping with a strong sense of musical innovation. The players all grew up in musical environments, and have backgrounds in traditional bluegrass, classical music, and gypsy jazz. Since coming together in 2013, the hours that the Sharp Shooters have put in together has allowed them to grown together musically giving them a deep sonic connection and a signature sound. The Sharp Shooters put on high energy and fun loving shows, jumping quickly from high paced bluegrass to goofy songs about cats. The energy on stage when these guys get together is infectious.
