She blends this influence with her classical violin training when she plays American bluegrass. Stacey also teaches the next generation of musicians as a violin instructor and has coordinated children's activities for Shepherd's Ford Productions at Watermelon Park Bluegrass Festival.

CHRIS OUSLEY

A Maryland boy, Chris tramped off to the hills of western Pennsylvania to study the 3 B’s: books, beer and banjos. There he woodshedded with old hill cats in barns outside of abandoned steel and coal towns playing any instrument he could take a turn on. He joins Moose Jaw on bass adding thumping bluegrass rhythm.

JASON ROE

Jason Roe plays 5-string banjo in Moose Jaw. He derives his vast musical influences from the depths of traditional bluegrassers, labor song writers, and heavy metal. When Roe is not performing in the group: he spends his time as a devoted father, dedicated activist, and noted collector of tiny porcelain clown figurines. He is a native son of Prince George's County, Maryland and currently calls the People's Republic of Greenbelt, MD home.
