Richard, Fred, Doug and Greg - the KY Headhunters

The Kentucky Head Hunters paused for one second as they got off the bus before heading to the big stage for their Downtown Days concert Saturday night. Band members from left are: Richard and Fred Young, Doug Phelps, and Greg Martin. My sister Jane Todd and I share a tradition of visiting the booths and searching for cotton candy at every event. This year, however, our added goal was to simply enjoy being near the Headhunters, pride and joy of Metcalfe county, where we all (except Doug) grew up. The Youngs said that our father, Earl Reid Marcum, was one of their earliest encouragers who told them to stick with it when many others were telling them to quit music and get regular work. That was like our Dad, always positive, always believing, always playing some stringed instrument whenever time allowed. - LW Comments | Permalink
