LEACH, ROBERT

Robert Leach was the first banjo player in the Dry Branch Fire Squad and appeared on five of their early LPs, as well as recording with Chris Montgomery on Kanawha and Dorsey Harvey on Poca River. He has written a number of articles in Bluegrass Unlimited on Dayton-area bluegrass musicians. His article on Carlos Brock is a wonderful look at the early bluegrass history of Dayton.
