Jeff has joined with seasoned Bluegrass performer, Rodney Outlaw. Outlaw plays Bass Fiddle, guitar, harmonica and mandolin. His wife, Kay Outlaw, provides the band’s solid rhythm on the acoustic bass fiddle. The Outlaw’s residence is in Dale County Alabama, but they primarily live in PCB, Florida.
In addition, seasoned Bluegrass banjo, guitar and bass player, Greg Youngblood, from Southport, Florida provides those hard-driving banjo licks for this group’s sound.
Long time and well known Bluegrass artist, Scott Perry, holds down the band’s lead guitar duties. Scott, who plays multiple instruments, is also an accomplished Bagpipe performer. He has played the pipes for numerous events, many of which were in the PCB Florida area.
The resulting sound produced by this all acoustic band is a lineup of happy, joyful, and inspirational Gospel songs.

Robert van Deusen,
a Philadelphia native, began his musical training at age 7. Precocious from a very early age, he started picking out tunes by mimicking the family player piano. Classically trained, he attended Whetstone School of the Performing Arts in Columbus, Ohio, graduating with distinction. Further studies at Capital University, Ohio State, Eastman, and Curtis helped develop the dazzling technique that became a trademark of his playing style.
After turning pro in 1976, Bobby toured the Midwest, playing clubs, piano bars and providing concerts. Moving South in 1985 led him to the Rosie O’ Gradys Dixieland Band, and gigs in New Orleans with Pete Fountain, Al Hirt, and The Dukes. He performed with the Delta Queen Steamboat Company for 5 years, perfecting his stride and ragtime styles.
Bobby has played all over the country with Hilton Hotels, including the Hilton Sandestin, where he was featured entertainer for 5 years. He has also been the ‘House Band’ for RadioLive, a production of WUWF Public Radio, for 18 years. Bobby has toured the country playing Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue” with civic orchestras.
