Album Description
With one foot in the field and the other in the factory, The SteelDrivers are a beacon beaming their own version of rhythm'n'bluegrass far across the musical landscape. Highly regarded behind the scenes as songsmiths and session men - with innumerable hits, cuts, and licks to their credit - The SteelDrivers are stepping out at long last. In their ten capable hands, back-country high-lonesome collides with Delta soul, resulting in the freshest sound to emerge from Music City in recent memory. Via eleven original songs, their debut album offers revealing new takes on classic themes of redemption and loss, hope and home delivered with urgency and heart. The SteelDrivers are Richard Bailey, Mike Fleming, Mike Henderson, Tammy Rogers, and Chris Stapleton. "Really soulful bluegrass, with great songs. An incredible combination." -Vince Gill

AWESOME!!! August 23, 2008
Love the Steeldrivers! This group has a unique sound, what I call bluesy bluegrass. I hope to hear a lot more from this group. And they are as great in person as on their CD!
Not just a great bluegrass album ... August 13, 2008
This is a phenomenal album. Melodies and lyrics have freshness and impact that cut through the same-old same-old country scene. Fantastic 2-part harmonies that go from the rich smoothness of a summer night to the soaring edge of a mountain storm. Feels like it comes straight from the heart of the true America we so rarely see or hear.
Great, Great Bluegrass CD! July 29, 2008

This is the best CD I've bought in quite some time. You don't need to be a bluegrass fan to enjoy it either. My buddies give me a hard time when I pop in a bluegrass CD normally, but this one they told me to turn up. I would recommend this to anyone. Picture it as mostly traditional bluegrass with Van Zant singing the lead vocals.
Off-center bluegrass July 14, 2008

I came to this cd as a long-time fan of Mike Henderson, a true genius who has never been associated with anything but excellent music. "Steeldrivers" is no exception. Of course, the musicianship is out-of-this-world, you expect that with bluegrass, but what really separates this record from most of the others is the quality of the songs which are all just slightly "off-center".
