The Albert Hash Memorial Band program has been a part of Grayson County Schools since its inception at Mt.

Logan Fritz is a singer-songwriter from the heart of the Appalachian mountains. Influenced by the traditional style of the Carter Family, and inspired by the lyrical poetry of Bob Dylan, Logan’s music is a blend of timeless classics and contemporary styles. An Abingdon native and a product of the Birthplace of Country Music and the illustrious Barter Theatre stage, Logan is never happier than when he is on stage sharing a song.
