Dino Pastin

Dino Pastin's introduction to Country Music began with brief gigs with Tommy Overstreet and Vern Gosdin, followed by many years of performing in the Nashville music nightlife and studio scene and on the historic Printer's Alley.

In 1987, he joined the two-time "Entertainer of the Year" award-winning Barbara Mandrell Show. His nearly 10 years with Barbara afforded him opportunities to perform at the White House, a variety of music award shows, Late Night Television, and The Grand Ole Opry, as well as live performances with the likes of Gladys Knight and CeCe Winans.

With the conclusion of Barbara's farewell concert, Dino connected with the super-group Alabama, three-time Entertainers of the Year. In 2004 he played the American Farewell Tour with Alabama. Dino has had the pleasure of recording on several of Barbara Mandrell and Alabama's CDs, and most recently he has co-produced a project with Tim McGraw's producer, Darren Smith. He's played on the Grand Old Opry, late night television, tons of award shows, the Grammy's, and even played at the White House for the president.
