Smokey Greene and the Greene Brothers,
Arlin and Scott will be performing at the Jamboree along with their father, the Legendary Smokey Greene. Smokey Greene is a true pioneer in country music. The legendary Smokey Greene has been playing guitar and singing since the 1940’s. In 1961, put together an act that opened a lot of shows for name acts like Ernest Tubb, Hank Thompson, Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard and most of the acts that worked the WWVA Jamboree. Smokey, the area's favorite country singer, has been featured in our country bluegrass jamboree ever since its inception and we are thrilled to have him back.
