| Lost River Bluegrass of Texas |
Eddie Hanks, Debbie Hanks, and Danny Milner make up
the traditional bluegrass sound in this newly formed
band. They chose their band's name in honor of their
friend, Jake Jacobi, who loved singing the song "Lost
River." Jake passed away in 2007, but his memory lives
on for these three musicians every time they go on stage.
Eddie has been playing guitar and mandolin since he was
about 7 years old. He began playing in his father's band
called Texas Grass then moved on to play in Southern
Union in 1992. He and his wife, Debbie, helped form
the band Cedar Creek in 2007 before it was renamed
Music Mountain in 2008. For the past four years, Eddie
has concentrated mainly on his banjo pickin'.
Debbie is his wife, and before she met Eddie she had not
had any experience with bluegrass. She enjoyed singing
in church and school choirs, and she also sang with an
a Capella group while attending Texas Tech University in
1987. Eddie began teaching her how to play the bass in
2004 and states that he has "created a monster" now!
This couple lives in Seymour, Texas.
Danny began playing guitar as a young boy. His family
was extremely musical, and he tells of many songs his
mama would sing to him as a child. His daddy was an
evangelical pastor, so they traveled quite a bit singing
and playing throughout the South. He has also
performed on live radio programs as part of his family's
ministry. He makes his home with his wife in Iowa Park,
Texas.
