Basin & Grange is excited to release its debut album,
Walk You Down the Road. Packed with the band's renowned harmonies, it includes ten original songs and two favorite cover songs. One of those covers is
Jenny Lynn, written by the late
Ron Spears. Ron, a Utah native, was a recent member of
Fast Track.
The first track,
Pines of Caroline, written by band member Boyd Timothy, was featured in the
2021 IBMA Songwriter Showcase.
Bad Day at Sheep Creek, the album's featured single, depicts the unfortunate tragedy of a young Utah family who lost their lives to a sudden intense flash flood in 1965.
Basin & Grange is a five-piece all acoustic bluegrass band with roots in Salt Lake City. After winning the inaugural band competition at the Durango Meltdown Bluegrass Festival in 2022, they were invited back as a main stage performer in 2023. Best known for their bluegrass harmony singing, the band plays regularly in the Intermountain West.
Walk You Down the Road was engineered by Boyd Timothy at Molinello Music Studio in Highland, UT.
Scott Vestal mixed and mastered the album.
"I thoroughly enjoyed listening to
Walk You Down the Road," said songwriter,
Rick Lang. "There's some wonderful material here including a couple instrumentals, intriguing story songs, plus some stellar harmonies throughout. If you love traditional Bluegrass, let Basin & Grange "walk you down the road."
