The band recently released their latest album ‘Jubilation’ on which country legendĭolly Parton introduces and is an ode to the life, culture, and lifestyle of Appalachia. “With this group, we want to shine a light on the music and the culture of the Appalachian region we come from,” says Abernathy. The group also includes bassist Todd Phillips, an acknowledged legend in bluegrass music circles, with two Grammy wins and four Grammy nominations under his belt, along with 23-year-old “old soul” guitarist Zeb Snyder, whose fierce and versatile playing recalls Doc Watson and Norman Blake as readily as it does Duane Allman and Stevie Ray Vaughn. Grammy-nominated banjoist Barry Abernathy joins forces with Grammy winning fiddler Jim VanCleve, fresh off of his recent stint touring with multi-platinum country artist Josh Turner, as well as esteemed vocalist and mandolinist Darrell Webb, who has recorded and toured with Dolly Parton and Rhonda Vincent, among many others. Appalachian Road Show is a visionary acoustic ensemble, comprised of Grammy and IBMA award winners and nominees, bringing new-generation interpretations of traditional Americana, bluegrass, and folk songs, as well as offering innovative original music, all presented with a common thread tied directly to the heart of the Appalachian regions of the United States. ![]()
