Five Vanderbilt University greeks are winding up their uncommonly successful career as a county music cover band. The brainchild of Jeb Raulston (Sigma Chi, vocals and lead guitar), the group has grown to include Andrew Dudas (Sigma Alpha Epsilon, fiddle), Andrew Vernon (Sigma Alpha Epsilon, bass guitar), Kevin Seguin (Beta Theta Pi, drums), and Matt Kuykendall (Sigma Alpha Epsilon, electric guitar). Following the dream of many pick-up college bands, the bluegrass quintet started off just playing for fun on weekends, and slowly metamorphosed into a local powerhouse with a healthy fan base. But with its members on the verge of graduating, the band looks likely to break up at the end of the academic year. A shame to be sure, but such is the fate of all but the most transcendant college bands.
