About Conley-Schmidt

Formerly known as The Schmidts & First Love, Conley • Schmidt has been singing and performing in one way or another for 18 years. Singers and pickers have come and gone but it all began with a love for music and the Giver of Music and that love just grows stronger. As time marches on the group just gets better- the harmonies get sweeter and the pickin' gets tighter.

Their latest album self-titled Conley • Schmidt & First Love , is all over the bluegrass map with some high lonesome sound, a few Osborne Brothers tunes, a little country, a little yodel, and a song written by both Stephen & Orie. Take all of that and add some amazing instrumental solos and 3 and 4 part harmony and that's the Conley • Schmidt experience.

Our group consists of Orie Conley - Mandolin & Guitar, Sharon Conley - Acoustic bass, Nelson Miller - Banjo & Guitar, Viviane Schmidt - Leads and backup vocals, Rosetta Lead and backup vocals, Stephen Schmidt - Lead and backup vocals, Guitar, Fiddle and Dobro
