Tony Mowell - The Smyth County Jam welcomes Tony Mowell as a first timer here. He lives in Kingsport, Tennessee. Tony plays with the band "Blue Moon Rising" as well as being employed by a credit union. He plays bass and some mandolin When he is not working or playing music Tony says he enjoys spending time with his family, wife and two children; ages seven and three years. Tony comes from a musical family. His father played bass and his mother plays piano and sings, then there is younger brother David, who is also a talented musician in his own right. To name a few favorite musicians, Tony says he likes Ray Charles, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Tony Rice. He says there are too many songs he likes to name a certain one; however Tony Rice's "Manzanita" LP is a huge favorite. We hope he will visit the Smyth County Jam as often as he can.
