The Divots

This trio first got together in 2011 for an impromptu performance at a local fundraiser. This led to a request to play on a regular basis at a golf course in Norwalk, Ohio which inspired the newly formed band to assume the name "The Divots". Since then the Divots have been playing Acoustic Rock favorites throughout the Northern Ohio area, and they continue to support important causes, such as The Ohio Elks Cerebral Palsy Fund and the Huron County Humane Society Vine and Dine.

Mel Holida - Bass, Mandolin, Ukulele

Remember to "Fill and Smooth your Divots"
