LaTresa Smith (guitar, singer, songwriter) was born in Florence, AL and grew up all over the South singing with a family band "The Hester Brothers", her minister father and his minister brothers, performing traditional country and southern Gospel music. She remembers listening to bluegrass music on Saturday nights in an old store front in Steens, Mississippi and dreaming of having a bluegrass band of her own one day. She moved out West as a young adult, then returned to the south for ten years in the bluegrass state of Kentucky, until settling in Nashville, TN in 2003.
