Back when they started their first gig in 1968, people were likely asking themselves, who are The Bellamy Brothers? But no one has to ask that any longer? When I was stationed in Germary from 1991-1994 I played guitar in a German Dance And Show Band, and when we played Bellamy music, everyone was on the floor. There were, and still are, very popular in Europe. A Bellamy Brothers Interview on AFN in 2009Care to take a guess at who is the most talented Bellamy? That goes to the younger David. Both brothers grew up playing guitar, banjo and mandolyn, but David also taught himself to play accordion, fiddle, organ, and piano. Everyone in that family was talented .. even their sewing machine was a Singer. Sorry ... couldn't resist that one. The duo still perform about 175 shows per year around the US and Europe. The Bellamy Brothers biography will continue to write another chapter as the band plays on ... and we the fans win because of it.
