Biography
SpringStreet was born in 1990 as the dream of founding members Mike Williams and Dan Nieto. The friends had just gone to see Bill Monroe & The Bluegrass Boys play in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Inspired by this experience to start a musical career of their own, they chose the band name "SpringStreet" after the city street where the auditorium of that show was located.
Now thirty years later, SpringStreet has become an award-winning band of musicians and vocalists and is still going strong, entertaining folks all over the country. Current members include Nick Alberty (mandolin/lead vocals), Steve Huhn (upright bass), Roger Sparks (fiddle/vocals), along with original members Mike Williams (banjo/vocals) and Dan Nieto (guitar/lead vocals).
SpringStreet is very blessed to stay on the road performing more than 100 shows a year including popular bluegrass events such as:
Silver Dollar City's "Bluegrass & BBQ Festival" in Branson, Missouri
"Turkey Track Bluegrass Festival" in Waldron, Arkansas
"Bluegrass & Chili Festival" in Wagoner, Oklahoma.
.......and many more throughout Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Tennessee, and Maine, most recently.
