Town Mountain is a young bluegrass-y band who travel and tour extensively. They’ve been off and on tour for the past five years. Their new album is coming out in May on the respected Bluegrass label Pinecastle. Not being an expert on bluegrass I’m not exactly sure if they depart at all from the traditional sounds of the genre. But their youth and their songwriting clearly gives them a different perspective in a genre dominated by aging stars.
The new record is called Steady Operator and its got a May 10 release date. “Midnight Road” is a “tired-of-life-on-the-road” type song. And I know some folks are sick and tired with songs about life on the road and the hardships that go along with it. But I for am still intrigued by life on the road.
