Grammy Award Winning Bluegrass Group, The SteelDrivers Announce 2023 Riding the Rails Tour
NASHVILLE, TN (CelebrityAccess) – Grammy Award-winning bluegrass group The SteelDrivers have announced they’re hitting the road in 2023 for the Riding the Rails Tour. The 44-date trek kicks off Friday (March 31) at Tuffy’s in Sanford, FL and concludes on November 11 at Saint Lucie Farm in Ft. Pierce, FL.
The Nashville-based group of seasoned music vets [Richard Bailey (banjo), Tammy Rogers (fiddle), Mike Fleming (bass), Brent Truitt (mandolin), Matt Dame (guitar)], each distinguished in their own right, are taking the opportunity to braid their bluegrass roots with new music of their own design, bringing together country, soul, blues, and other contemporary influences to create an unapologetic hybrid for the masses. This is new music with an old feeling. SteelDrivers fan Vince Gill describes the fusion as “an incredible combination.”
The SteelDrivers have been nominated for four GRAMMY Awards, the Americana Music Association’s (AMA) New Artist of the Year Award and was the International Bluegrass Music Association’s (IBMA) 2009 Emerging Artist of The Year. In addition, they scored a Grammy win for The Muscle Shoals Recordings, taking home the trophy for Best Bluegrass Recording in 2015.
