Brandon GodmanYoung fiddler Brandon Godman has been announced as the newest member of Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver, replacing veteran sideman Alan Johnson who is taking work outside of music.

Brandon has been busy this past few years working with Karl Shiflett, Wildfire and until now, with NewFound Road. His first show with Doyle will be this weekend (6/6) in Cullman, AL.
