Americana, Folk Rock, and Blues all come together when Gabby Haze mixes tight harmonies and an unusual assortment of instruments including autoharp, sax, flute, 2 acoustic guitars, mandolin, harmonica and stand up bass. The result is a selection of original songs written by band members Dave Magnone and Dan Layman along with covers of The Beatles, John Prine, Arlo Guthrie, The Band, Bob Dylan, John Sebastian, Hootie Ledbetter, The Rolling Stones, Steve Goodman and Hank Williams. When Gabby Haze does covers, they don't try to sound like the original artists, they play the tunes in their own style.

Gabby Haze is a 5 piece band that includes:

Dave Magnone: Guitar and Vocals

Dan Layman: Autoharp and Vocals

Carl Bailey: Sax, Flute, and Vocals

Bill Yetzer: Harmonica

Jerry Fretwell: Bass

Dave, Dan, Carl and Bill have been playing together since the 70s. The newest member is Jerry Fretwell. Jerry has been playing bluegrass "pretty much forever", but is also enjoying playing a variety of music with Gabby Haze.
