The New Ballard's Branch Bogtrotters came together informally at the 1985 Fries fiddlers Convention and have since become well known and appreciated in traditional music circles. The name, The New Ballard's Branch Bogtrotters, is a tribute to the original Ballard's Branch Bogtrotters, a famous Galax-area band of the 1930s. The group has won the prestigious first place old-time band prize at the Old Fiddlers' Convention in Galax eight different years. Eddie Bond, the band's fiddler, is also a fine vocalist, and he knows many of the old mountain ballads that date back to previous generations.
The New Ballard's Branch Bogtrotters are: Eddie Bond (Fiddle & Vocals), Dennis Hall (Guitar), Bonnie Bond (Bass/Vocals), Dallas Hall(Mandolin), and Josh Ellis (Banjo)
