Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band Bluegrass Band from Martinsburg, WV

Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band is a Martinsburg-area bluegrass crew serving up that real, heart-of-the-mountains sound for weddings, festivals, private parties, and community events. They’re the kind of band that makes you want to clap along, sing the old favorites, and lean in for the tight picking and gospel-leaning harmonies. If you’re looking for mainstream, high-energy bluegrass with roots you can feel, this is it. Fronted by vocalist and bassist Libby Files, Stoney Creek pays tribute to porch-picking traditions while keeping things fresh with original songs and crowd-pleasing classics. They first made a big splash by opening for country legend Loretta Lynn, and since then they’ve kept bringing authentic Appalachian vibes to every stage they hit. The band’s track record is seriously impressive. They’ve reached multiple chart milestones, including No. 1 wins and top placements on Roots Music Report, plus national recognition from Cashbox Magazine. In 2023, “There Is A Time” topped the Roots Music Report charts, and their album A Miner’s Life held No. 1 for four weeks—proof that their sound connects with listeners far beyond the dance floor. For 2026, Stoney Creek’s lineup includes Libby Files (bass), Brett Smeltzer (mandolin), Rylan Rissler (banjo), and Gregg Bowers (guitar). They also travel with front-of-house engineering and a self-contained production setup. A stage plot and technical rider are provided in advance when booked, so planning is easy and the music can come in loud and smooth.
