Corey Hensley to Quicksilver

Cory HensleyDoyle Lawson & Quicksilver has a new member. Corey Hensley has come aboard singing tenor and playing guitar.

Corey is a native West Virginian who has played and sung bluegrass and Gospel music since he was a young boy. He spent time on bass with Change Of Heart, a Southern Gospel group, and more recently with Jim & Valerie Gabeheart, a bluegrass Gospel band. Like so many talented bluegrass artists, Hensley is also proficient on banjo and guitar.

Doyle, however, brought him to the band for his clear, powerful voice. He debuted with Quicksilver this past weekend.

A family man at heart, Corey had previously resisted offers to perform full time, but I suppose that Doyle can be very persuasive.
