Put It Where You Want It
The High Ground Drifters are an all star assemblage of bluegrass pickers and singers that joined together post Katrina. They combine traditional and contemporary bluegrass in a tightly interplayed style that emphasizes harmony singing and energetic tempos. Whether it is Bill Monroe, the Stanley Brothers, or Del Mccoury and Ricky Skaggs or their originals featured on their debut record, The High Ground Drifters (Lonesome Cul De Sac Records), the influences are plain to see and encourage the band to put their own mark on the songs. Festivals around the area have featured the High Ground Drifters and their acoustic bluegrass style is a nice departure for audiences in a jazz oriented town. This Mid City based band includes Grant Ligon on Guitar, Paul Williams on Mandolin, John Noble on Banjo, Jeff Bagwell on Fiddle, and Greg Nichols on Bass. Their fast paced sets often include reworkings of songs by Fats Domino, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, and Yes, among others. Gather around the stage as they gather around a single microphone and bring bluegrass to you with New Orleans musicality
This is incorrect. They were a British band. Cliff Richards was the lead singer.

Cliff Richard & The Drifters (Shadows)
The Drifters - Japanese band - was created in 1956.
His first band was in high school called "The Quintones" He then joined the Dick Teague Skiffle Group in 1957 and subsequently left with drummer Terry Smart to form their own rock 'n' roll band, the Drifters in 1958. After getting a record contract they became Cliff Richard and the Drifters (for a few months until a few line up changes and the American Drifters made them change their name to the Shadows).
There are actually three answers to this question, depending where you want to set your goalposts! While Cliff Richard's first album, Cliff, was recorded with The Shadows in 1959, at this time The Shadows were actually called The Drifters. The Shadows also appear on Cliff's second album, Cliff Sings, released the same year, but only appear on half of the tracks. The first album on which The Shadows are both the only backing band AND under the name The Shadows (and not The Drifters!) is Me and My Shadows, released in 1960.
Cliff Richards is a British singer, performer, and actor. He has sold 21 million units in the UK which makes him the third most selling artist in UK history. Sammy Samwell wrote songs for him later on in his career. The member of the band wrote many of his hits.
