Luke Zacherl, the band’s fiddle player, was born and raised in the Fryburg/Marble area and is a 1999 Keystone Junior-Senior High School graduate.

Luke, who has been with NOMaD for five years, says he always enjoys performing at shows close to home.

“I’ve gotten to do a lot of cool things playing in this band. I’ve played all over the place and met a lot of my heroes, but it’s awesome to come home and play in front of my family and friends and get that same feeling of excitement as when we opened for Kenny Chesney or when we got to sing on stage with Brad Paisley.”, said Zacherl.

NOMaD's Luke Zacherl is a 1999 graduate of Keystone. Courtney Stewart is currently a sophomore at Keystone. Both will perform tonight at Fryburg's Mayfest celebration.
