BALSAM RANGE 'Trains I Missed' MH-12952-CD

$15.99
Add To Wishlist

This band from western North Carolina is establishing itself as a group to be reckoned with: featuring strong lead singing by 4 of the 5 members, it brings a hard-driving yet contemporary style of Bluegrass to the table. Members of the band include Darren Nicholson on mandolin, Marc Pruett on banjo, Caleb Smith on guitar, Tim Surrett on acoustic bass and Buddy Melton on fiddle. Melton's lead singing is the most distinctive and assertive, though it seems to be coming from a rock background and sensibility --his performance of the title song is the selling point of the record --it's a fine song --though to this listener the songs sung by Surrett, Nicholson and especially Caleb Smith are just as appealing. The choice of material on their first album might have been a bit stronger than this effort, and some may find their presentation a bit too intense, but it's all well arranged and nicely played. HARD PRICE TO PAY, THE OTHER SIDE, EAST VIRGINIA BLUES, ON THE RUN and MEMORY OF YOU, etc. $ 13.99
