Jason Hambrick was born and raised in Franklin County, Virginia only a few miles from 
Philpott Lake.  His love of music started at a young age with singalongs at home with his sister and dad.  Jason's father, Roy, played bluegrass and old-time fiddle and guitar and also sang with a strong voice that Jason has inherited.  He recalls listening to bluegrass music growing up, notably The Stanley Brothers, The Seldom Scene, The Country Gentlemen, and considers John Starling to be his favorite singer after his dad.  In the 1980's Jason's father joined the Dry Hill Draggers, an old-time band that played music for square dances and started Jason’s interest in another style of music.  After Jason lost his dad to cancer, the yearning to play more music turned into a goal that he reached in 2007 when he joined the second generation of Draggers.  Jason’s specialty is being able to work some of his favorite bluegrass songs to fit the old-time beat that the dancers enjoy.  After more than a decade of playing this old-time style of music, Jason really enjoys being around folks that share his love for the music.  When the Draggers took an indefinite hiatus in 2017, Jason was thankful that he and some of the other members decided to form a spin-off of the group called the Twin Creeks Stringband which continues the legacy of the music he was introduced to as a teen by his father.  Jason's rhythmic guitar playing complements his strong vocals as he sings lead and harmony with the Twin Creeks Stringband.
