David Mayfield grew up touring with his family’s bluegrass band, honing his chops on bass, guitar, and mandolin. His stage presence—on full display backing his sister Jessica Lea Mayfield, including on The Late Show with David Letterman—made him a natural frontman.
A former member of Cadillac Sky, He has toured with Mumford & Sons, The Avett Brothers, Dave Evans, and more. Now leading his own bluegrass band, he’s released a new album produced by Tim O’Brien (Go Big and go Home) on Mountain Fever Records, and share's his charm as frequent guest host of NPR’s Mountain Stage.
Combining virtuosic musicianship, comedy, and infectious charisma, Mayfield leaves every audience eager to join the parade.
“…a dynamic combination of music and comedy worthy of a traveling vaudeville act”
