The Malpass Brothers
Best known as modern-day troubadours who carry the torch for traditional country music, The Malpass Brothers began singing and playing together professionally at a very young age. Alongside their dad, Chris Malpass Sr., the siblings performed at churches all over the southeast, but they continued to hone their traditional sound by working alongside and amongst the legends.
Even before Merle Haggard invited 21-year-old Chris and 17-year-old Taylor onto his bus to “pick a little” audiences knew this duo was special. Too often fads and stylesfade, music and language homogenize and all things “special” become relegated to nostalgia. But what Merle and audiences found was real-time, current authenticity ina country performance that had all too quickly slipped through Nashville’s grasp. Merle extended an invitation to them to join his tour and for the next 7 years The Malpass Brothers were Merle’s opening act.
Their own next act was anything but set in stone. They started small, having dad play bass and bringing along a snare drum player named Dennis. They played county fairs, church suppers, and the odd bluegrass festival. Odd because electric instruments and drums were frowned upon by the bluegrass establishment – but before long they were headlining those same festivals.
Their performance and personalities caught the attention of Larry Black, host of Larry’s Country Diner and producer of Country’s Family Reunion both RFD TV staples. Those appearances led to their own contract with the network for a season of shows. Now in it’s 3rd season, The Malpass Brothers Show continues in the tradition of The Porter Waggoner Show and the Jimmy Dean Show, showcasing the talent of Country Music newcomers, legends, and icons.
