Four Bridges

About Four Bridges

Four Bridges- a hard driving New England foursome that plays original & traditional bluegrass. We also play some tasty and unexpected covers of rock tunes. We love them bluegrass harmonies.

Jeremy Place-mandolin, guitar, vocals.
By day, Jeremy is in college studying music education. At night, he’s an avid songwriter and bread baker. He picks and writes after he gets his two young boys tucked in bed and a couple of loaves in the oven. Jeremy lives in Middleboro, MA.

Benjamin Marshall-banjo, guitar, mandolin, fiddle, vocals & bass.
Benjamin grew up on a Rhode Island emu farm run by his loving family. His dad Rusty was a pit man and mechanic on the stock car racing circuit and brought little Ben with him up and down the east coast. Rusty also winter plowed and took Ben, a pot of coffee and a Flatt & Scruggs double eight track every time he left to work those long nights. The rest is history. Ben admires and respects the bluegrass icons and that sound is very much a part of Ben's musical chemistry. Look for Ben's Dad, Rusty, manning our record table. Ben and Rusty are Rhode Islanders.

Russ Hermansen-bass, guitar.
Russ is a carpenter and has been laying down the beat for Massachusetts bluegrass bands for twenty years and counting. Russ claims he remembers Woodstock. He lives in Plymouth, MA.

Greg Ferreira-mandolin, guitar, banjo, harmonica, vocals.
Greg is a classically-trained pianist who loves music. As a young boy, Greg passionately practiced Franz Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No.2 in between playing baseball and other boyhood pastimes like catching frogs and shooting bows and arrows. In his teens, Bill Monroe & the Stanley's caught his ear & he got to work playing that high lonesome sound. Hailing from Aquidneck Island, he is the tallest member of Four Bridges and is often the one hooting & hollering & getting everyone pumped up.
