  Meet Gator Creek      
         
  Fred Lawrence:  
  Fred is my husband and best friend. Working behind the scenes as diligently as he does out front, Fred is a very important  
  part of our music. His harmony singing, rhythm and lead guitar, dobro and steel guitar help to create a distinctive sound  
  to our recordings and our performances on stage. Fred has had years of experience playing in bands. He has performed on  
  several TV shows and has backed many artists on recordings. Fred’s passion for music is unrelenting. Between the long  
  hours spent in the studio when producing and mixing a project and time dedicated to just listening for that ‘next great  
  song’, I feel I have my own ‘music encyclopedia.’  
     
  Ron Jenkins:  
  A great friend and a wonderful addition to Catherine Lawrence and Gator Creek, Ron plays a 5-string Kay Bass (a rare  
  model), which he has owned for several years. Ron is rated amongst the top bass players. He has played on several  
  recordings, and will jump at the chance to play on stage or in a jam. A fellow Nova Scotian living in Port Clyde in Shelburne  
  County, Ron and his wife Rita are our winter neighbours in Zephyrhills, Florida. When he’s back in Canada during the  
  summer, Ron spends a lot of leisure time hunting and painting at his camp.  
     
  Rich Steenburn:  
  Another good friend and important addition to Catherine Lawrence and Gator Creek, Rich plays a Gibson banjo with which  
  he has backed a lot of artists over the years. Rich hales from New York State; and two years ago he and his wife Audrey  
  became permanent residents of Florida. Rich headed a country band for a number for years and has a CD available called  
  Country and Bluegrass Favorites. After taking up the banjo he continued to play on several recording as well as in bands.  
  Rich chuckles when he says that one summer he worked as a “body guard” for Faron Young, all one hundred and thirty  
  pounds of him!!!! Rich’s love for music is constant and one cannot help but feel his enthusiasm when he cuts into a banjo  
  tune he wrote and named for Gator Creek.  
     
  At the CD table you’ll meet Rita Jenkins, Audrey Steenburn and Jeannine Duval along with Flo Duval helping with the  
  equipment. Their loyalty is appreciated and I love each and every one of them!!! Everyone in the group is always ready, as  
  we say in Florida, for a “shake and howdy.” So make a point to drop by and visit with us!
