Put a dozen traditional bluegrass bands in a row: you'll have 11 apples (all good but all similar) and 1 orange (still good but different) We are the orange. Single vocal mic, well dressed, fast paced, with all the excitement of the early days in our covers and our original material.
Bluegrass - Chicago Style!
"Truman's Ridge harmonies are varied, at times reminiscent of the early brother bands, and at other
times showing a strong rural-gospel influence in the 3 and 4 part vocals. The lead vocals are always
strong. Instrumentally the band continues to show the influence of midwestern string band and Chicago
jazz and blues on its interpretation of traditional bluegrass arrangements. The rock-solid beat of
the guitar and bass compliment the driving rhythm of the banjo and the compelling mandolin lead breaks.
Fiddle and harmonica are also featured on some songs. Trumans Ridge offers an exciting blend
of the familiar and the unique."
