IRON HORSE:
Anyone listening to the innovative, hard-driving instrumental licks and strong, precise harmonies of this Bluegrass Band will want to strap in to their seat and prepare to be thrilled with the ride. The compilations produced by this extremely progressive band truly bring delights to the listening experience. These guys are uniquely gifted in arrangement and presentation of lyrics and melody.
The belief that a group of men, with the help of God, can do anything certainly has found wings within the hearts of Iron Horse members, Tony Robertson (mandolin,) Vance Henry (guitar,) Ricky Rogers (bass,) and Anthony Richardson (banjo.) Their vision and talent for producing a distinctive interpretation of bluegrass standards as well as crossover standards has caused fans, peers, musical engineers, and recording labels alike to agree that these guys are outside of the box of restraints and boundaries. They are, without a doubt, just in their inception of making their mark on the consumer of great acoustic and bluegrass music. Every indicator at this point is that their impact will be genuine and intriguing.
"Iron Horse" has a new sound for Bluegrass and they always perform with a spirit and sense of style that pays the most gratifying compliment to acoustic and bluegrass lovers; a warm mixture of family influence, belief in God, and an unwillingness to deny their creative urges.
The variety and energetic composition presented on the live stage performances and recorded projects definitely prove that the well-blended arrangement originalities provided by Iron Horse have merit that will stand on its own in any genre.
JON STICKLEY TRIO:
Born out of the fertile Asheville Bluegrass scene, Jon Stickley has emerged as one of the nation's top flatpicking guitarists. He has worked with many local artists including Jeff Sipe, Shannon Whitworth, The Biscuit Burners, Taylor Martin, and Town Mountain. Stickley's first solo album, Lions, was featured in Flatpicking Guitar Magazine. The Jon Stickley Trio featuresStickley on acoustic guitar and vocals, Lyndsay Pruett (Futureman) on fiddle, and Ryan Oslance (Ahleuchatistas) on drums. The trio combines the speed and intensity of bluegrass with rhythms of jazz, hip-hop, and rock.
MOUNTAIN FEIST:
Mountain Feist is a groove oriented and high energy progressive bluegrass band, inspired by traditional bluegrass and shaped by music from around the world. The band plays a fast paced, interactive show supported by tight four part harmonies, instrumental features and an eclectic repertoire of original music as well as fresh covered material.
