Band changes

In November 2013, banjo player Steve Dilling and bass player Edgar Loudermilk announced their intentions to leave IIIrd Tyme Out. Steve Dilling cited health reasons as his reason for leaving the band while Edgar Loudermilk decided to capitalize on a songwriting and solo CD push.[2] It was later announced that Keith McKinnon would be the new banjo player and Blake Johnson would be the new bass player.[3] The new lineup performed together on stage for the first time in January 2014 in Galax, Virginia.
