Answer 1

Answer This was a good band!garland shuping and wild country consisted of darrell sanson, Keith sanson garland, and Marty townsend. they originally formed wild country after previously playing together in the group, The Bluegrass Alliance. There were a couple of other pickers that went through wild country, but these are the most popular members.

During the mid and late 1980's it was:

Tom Isenhour - Mandolin

Steve Kilby - Guitar

Ruth Isenhour - bass

(Ruth has been married to both Tom and Garland)

They were a very tight band with great harmonies!

Garland Shuping lived in Florida from 1978 until the early eighties. While there, Wild Country was the house band at The Picking Parlor in Satellite Beach. They also played many festivals. Other band members during those years included Ed Koontz on fiddle, Craig Kirk on bass and fiddle, Garland's wife, Ruth Elaine on bass, Tony King on guitar, and Bob Walters on guitar. I saw Garland and his wife in the nineties and their son, Brandon, was playing mandolin with him. I heard that Garland's daughter, Kara, sings as well.
