What could possibly be better? It's bluegrass from the Blue Ridge, and it'scoming to the Monterey United Methodist Church on Thursday, June 19th
as the next incredible show from Otter Opry.
Mining the fertile common ground between bluegrass, early country music,
and traditional mountain music, The Alum Ridge Boys & Ashlee are
Virginia’s torchbearers of the old time sound. Featuring the classic quintet
of fiddle, banjo, mandolin, guitar, and bass, the band comprises five
masterful musicians and singers who have immersed themselves in the
dance music traditions of the Blue Ridge region and developed a deeply
rooted old time bluegrass sound. Deep appreciation for Country and
"Hillbilly" music of the '30s, '40s, and '50s enables the band to craft tasteful
original songs and instrumentals that blend seamlessly alongside the
classics.
Their powerful harmony singing and energetic instrumentals have
captivated audiences around the globe and helped the band to win many
awards, including first prize in the old time band contest at the 85th Annual
Old Fiddlers’ Convention in Galax, Virginia and the bluegrass band contest
at the 51st Mount Airy Fiddlers’ Convention in North Carolina. Band
members have also won a slew of individual awards including first place
bluegrass banjo at Galax, first place old time fiddle at the Appalachian
String Band Festival in Clifftop, WV, and first prize in the 29th Annual
MerleFest Chris Austin Songwriting Contest. The Alum Ridge Boys &
Ashlee cut no corners when it comes to real, hard hitting, old time country
music -- an approach that is quickly gaining them loyal followers far beyond
the reaches of their Virginia mountain home. You will love this show! The
event includes a delicious dinner at 5:30pm ($12.50 before June 14th,
$17.50 at the door).
