Tricia Anne Eaves began playing bluegrass music professionally in the early 70s in her native New Mexico, landing a job playing guitar in the formerly all-male Big River Boys (which became the Big River Band after she joined), the major bluegrass band in the New Mexico scene at the time. Just a couple of years later, Tricia was playing mandolin in her own band.

Tricia is a giver, whether she’s inspiring young musicians to play professionally, or equipping future music professionals at ETSU where she now teaches business and music law. 40 years into her professional career, she has released her long-awaited debut solo album.
