Editorial Review:

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

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Simply great!
I first heard this group on one of the late-night TV shows and immediately went in search of their album. Since I still have not made the switch to downloading music, I am usually happy to get one or two good songs on an album by an artist that I like. I got way more than expected on this album and eagerly await the Steeldrivers' next effort.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome
Not exactly traditional bluegrass, but just plain great. If you are a mountain heart, cadillac sky, or o.c.m.s. fan you will enjoy.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - World of Shadows
Steeldrivers' sound has the raw alt country flavor rolled in bluegrass. The songwriting on the disc is consistently strong as Mike Henderson's mandolin, Tammy Rogers' fiddle & Richard Bailey's banjo give the music a cohesive style. From the opener "Blue Side of the Mountain" to the closer, this is a strong set. "Blue Side of the Mountain" has a howl like a vintage recording by The Band with Chris Stapleton's vocals moody & desperate, "I'm going back to a world of shadows, Got to find peace ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Lets go Drinking
I'm new to Bluegrass. Just moved from the city to West Virginia, so the music is everywhere. Not much of a country music fan, but I have to say that the steeldrivers had me from the first song. Powerful soulful singing with a very tight music. The entire cd is right on the money. Since the Steeldrivers I have looking into and listened to over 50 bluegrass cd's and have been to 6-7 festivals with multiple bands at each. For my money this CD is one of the best on the market, and absolutely the best ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Just plain unbelievable...
I wish I could put my finger on it, it's not bluegrass, not americana, not blues, not rock, not country, you know what I don't care I just love it. There is something very special about these guys. I've never heard anything quite like it. If you're on the fence about buying this cd, just do it.
