The New Old Cavalry is a musical collaboration of friends who found in each other a deep passion for bluegrass music. Many of them met as members while attending Indiana University, some participating in IU’s Bluegrass and Traditional Music Club. The band currently consists of five members: Chris Dollar (guitar), Justin Hughey (banjo), Alex Wukmer (guitar), Patrick Hoeper (fiddle), and Brian Chomka (upright bass). They perform a lively collection of bluegrass and folk songs including dance tunes and ballads, and are known to perform almost anywhere, whether in a venue, at a farmer’s market, or on a porch. The New Old Cavalry is a young, fresh, entertaining band presenting a new spin on an old style, and they will not stop until everyone in the audience is dancing and singing along.
