The SteelDrivers

Only a town like Nashville could give birth to a band like The SteelDrivers. A group of seasoned veterans who are seizing an opportunity to follow their hearts to their souls’ reward. In doing so, they are braiding their bluegrass roots with new threads of their own design, bringing together country, soul, blues, and other contemporary influences to create an unapologetic hybrid that is old as the hills but fresh as the morning dew. This is new music with the old feeling. SteelDrivers fan Vince Gill describes the band’s fusion as simply “an incredible combination”

Led by founding member, fiddle player, and primary songwriter Tammy Rogers, The SteelDrivers have become one of the biggest names in progressive bluegrass after making their debut in 2005. Specializing in a unique mix of what might be called bluegrass soul, The SteelDrivers bring a passion to their delivery that adds a distinctive flavor, and they’re not afraid of adding a forceful grit to the music. The SteelDrivers have been nominated for four Grammys, the Americana Music Association’s New Artist of the Year Award, and were IBMA’s 2009 Emerging Artist of the Year. In 2015, their album “The Muscle Shoals Recordings” won the Grammy Award for Best Bluegrass Recording.
