The Whitetop Mountain Band has entertained audiences for more than 40 years and originated with Albert Hash in the 1940s, a well-known and beloved fiddler and luthier. He was later joined by his brother-in-law, late master fiddler, Thornton Spencer, and Thornton’s wife, a singer, banjoist, and music instructor– Emily Spencer. Thornton and Emily’s children, Kilby and Martha Spencer, complete the band along with long time members Ersel Fletcher and Debbie Bramer.  Steeped in the mountain music traditions and a mainstay of the Appalachian dance scene, the band frequently plays venerable old time dance venues like the Carter Family Fold, the Floyd Country Store, the Fries Theater Square Dance, and others throughout Southwest Virginia. Over the years, the band has toured to festivals and performance venues across the United States, and has performed in premier festivals in Australia, Europe, and Canada. Their shows highlight a wide variety of mountain music traditions mixed with traditional country, originals, and high-energy flatfoot dancing.
