The Marshall Brothers and Highroad are a regional bluegrass, and gospel band from the foothills of northwest North Carolina and southwest of Virginia. Eric and Steve Marshall began playing and singing together as a brother duet in the late 1990s after singing together for the first time at a church revival. Over the next few years they developed their unique style of harmony while playing mostly in churches and revivals around the Mount Airy area. In 2002 the band officially became known as The Marshall Brothers and Highroad which included the current lineup of Steve Marshall, Eric Marshall, Tim Ramey, and Patrick Lindsey. Together, these men bring their God given talent to each stage they cross with the common goal of sharing their enjoyment for this music and the message it brings with each and every person willing to listen.
