Mountain Fever Records is excited to present the self-titled album from Appalachian Smoke. This remarkable collection features an array of original music that beautifully melds traditional and contemporary bluegrass styles. Drawing deeply from their Appalachian roots, the band infuses each track with authentic mountain soul, creating a rich tapestry of sound that resonates with both nostalgia and innovation. Listeners will find themselves captivated by the heartfelt lyrics and vibrant instrumentation that define this extraordinary album.
Here's what bluegrass today had to say about this incredible project: “… while certain songs reflect their native environs — as evoked by the tangled tapestry and rustic ramble that define Maggie on My Mind, Don’t Wash Away Our Home, Good at Gone, and an adaption of the traditional tune, Bone Valley — there’s also a clear contemporary component that defines the majority of this music. Like Town Mountain and Steep Canyon Rangers in particular, Appalachian Smoke effectively integrate their reverence for the roots with a fully accessible approach that can connect with contemporary audiences as well.”
This standout album features the talents of BJ Taylor on mandolin, octave mandolin, and vocals; Mikel Laws on banjo, guitar, and vocals; Jamie Mason on guitar, banjo, and vocals; Kenneth Rymer on resophonic guitar, and vocals; and Tim Williams on bass and vocals. Each musician brings their unique artistry, contributing to the album’s vibrant sound and heartfelt performances.
