The Wagon Wheel Gang is an ever-growing, eclectic group of artists from diverse musical backgrounds with the common goal of spreading joy through re-creating their country, roots, and bluegrass originals. Six members of the Lutton family provide vocals for the Gang, which is led by Miami’s eccentric drummer and banjo player Big Donald Lutton.
An odd character, Big Donald is an ex-trapeze artist who bangs drums and creates the blues with a banjo onstage as well as on the full-length CD. Contributing veteran artists on the recent release include the 18 Wheelers, Deblois Milledge, Will Thomas, and MC Tripod. — Todd McFliker
