Union UMC's "Dudley's Rush"
Bluegrass/Gospel Band
Dudley's Rush is a 9 piece band that began as a small group playing
for a "talent show" at Union UMC. The group named the band "Dudley's Rush" after a prairie grass
native to Illinois.
The group has grown from the original 4 to 9 people. The strength of Dudley's Rush is their vocals,
however, they have fiddle, bass, guitars, dobro, autoharp, and mandolin to complement the strong harmonies.
Dudley's Rush has raised over $14,000.00 in 2007 for local charities.
