From the West Virginia Panhandle comes that hard-driving "no holds barred" bluegrass music courtesy of Marv Ashby and the High Octane band. Marv is joined by some the region's finest entertainers delivering a quality and fast moving show. Both traditional and contemporary bluegrass genres are showcased during High Octane performances.

High Octane features Marv's aggressive flatpicking style and straight-ahead vocal arrangements.

'Beardie' powers the low end with percussive doghouse bass and brings to the show unique 'Beardie Tunes' featuring traditional bluegrass vocal styling.

Troy Stangle rolls through the tunes with spot-on First Generation bluegrass drive and enthusiasm.

Larry Crawford delivers a forceful bluegrass punch from his fine fiddling prowess.
