Toby Gibson hails from Sneedville, Tennessee, where he learned picking and singing in his grandparent’s living room. Various local bluegrass musicians joined Toby’s grandfather and young Toby quickly learned to love music from its very roots of Bluegrass, county, soul and honky tonk. These influences are strong in his solo album, “Dirt Road.” Toby’s music, both his playing and writing is greatly defined by some of his musical heroes, Scott Miller, Bob Dylan, and Tyler Childers. If you listen closely you may hear a riff or a line that links his music with theirs.

The Toby Gibson Band is an energetic group of fun talented musicians bringing folk, bluesy, jam based sound. Austin Greene, of Sneedville, TN, captures the feelings in his electric guitar to bring you solo's that touch you way down deep in your gut. Alex Greene, of Sneedville, TN, keeps the rhythm rolling along on his drums. Ian Davidson, of Morristown, TN, brings a groovy vibe that is the backbone of their music. Together they blend together into a unique Appalachian/Melungeon sound. This band does not disappoint.

They just never seemed to be together all on one project. But that has all changed now. They had a vision to approach this band as a group of friends making music they love. They've found a way to bring together each of their musical tastes to form a groove of epic proportions. Don't be surprised if you find these guys going on a musical trip mid show. It's a blast to watch them create together. You don't want to miss it!
