My grandfather and his cousin recorded music for various labels in New York in 1936-1937 as the "Philyaw Brothers", they were both from Southeastern North Carolina. I have heard stories but never been able to confirm that they opened for or possibly played with Scruggs in a school gymnasium around that time. Would love to know if this is anything more than a rumor.
