STEEP CANYON RANGERS with Special Guest Amythyst Kiah STEEP CANYON RANGERS with Special Guest Amythyst Kiah Saturday, April 17, 2021, 7:30 PM EDT STEEP CANYON RANGERS with special guest Amythyst Kiah STEEP CANYON RANGERS with special guest Amythyst Kiah Program to be announced from the stage Biographies STEEP CANYON RANGERS Steep Canyon Rangers is Asheville, North Carolina’s Grammy winner, perennial Billboard chart-topper, and frequent collaborator of the renowned banjoist (and occasional comedian) Steve Martin. Steep Canyon Rangers re-signed with Yep Roc Records in 2019. “It feels like coming home,” says banjoist and vocalist Graham Sharp of the partnership. “The Yep Roc family was among the first to welcome Steep Canyon Rangers when we were just pups. As we’ve grown, so have they. We’re incredibly excited for the future and all the music it holds.” Steep Canyon Rangers released three albums in 2020, all on Yep Roc Records. The Grammy-nominated North Carolina Songbook is a recording of the band’s live 2019 performance at Merlefest in Wilkesboro, North Carolina, in which the band performed a selection of songs by North Carolina songwriters (Ola Belle Reed, Doc Watson, James Taylor, Ben E. King, and others). Be Still Moses—perhaps its most singular musical partnership to date–has the band teaming with Philadelphia soul legends Boyz II Men and its hometown Asheville Symphony to completely overhaul the Rangers’ original Be Still Moses, which was first recorded on its 2007 breakout album, Lovin’ Pretty Women. The album includes re-imagined versions of Steep Canyon’s previously released original songs performed with an orchestra. Its most recent release of all original music, Arm in Arm, came out in October. “Every song on Arm in Arm captures the North Carolina group’s innovative spirit, weaving in jazz, gospel, folk, and even rock phrases, creating an intimate and intricate sound that challenges, cajoles, and comforts.” —No Depression The band is made up of Woody Platt on guitar and vocals, Graham Sharp on banjo and vocals, Mike Guggino on mandolin/mandola and vocals, Nicky Sanders on fiddle and vocals, Mike Ashworth on drums and vocals, and Barrett Smith on bass and vocals. Steep Canyon Rangers has been on a journey that is uniquely its own. The band started in college at UNC-Chapel Hill, then dove head first into bluegrass in its most traditional form. Over the years the group has risen to the top of the bluegrass genre, headlining top festivals such as Merlefest and Grey Fox Bluegrass, only to then be discovered by Steve Martin, famous actor and banjo player. Martin has taken the group on a nearly decade-long tour, introducing it to hundreds of thousands of new fans and giving it prime time TV exposure. This has helped Steep Canyon Biographies (continued) STEEP CANYON RANGERS (continued) Rangers become the most recognizable modern name in bluegrass music. The band has continued to tour extensively on its own, without Martin, and has expanded its genre into country and Americana with the addition of a drummer, alongside an incredibly versatile bassist, to accompany the original core band. The band is a big player in the bluegrass/country and Americana scene today. Steep Canyon Rangers is often compared to predecessors The Band, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and the modern Zac Brown Band. This is Steep Canyon Rangers’ first performance at the Moss Arts Center. AMYTHYST KIAH With an unforgettable voice that’s both unfettered and exquisitely controlled, Tennessee-bred singer/songwriter Amythyst Kiah expands on the uncompromising artistry she most recently revealed as part of Our Native Daughters, an all-women-of-color supergroup whose Kiah- penned standout Black Myself earned a Grammy Award nomination for Best American Roots Song and won Song of the Year at the 2019 Folk Alliance International Awards. When met with the transcendent quality of her newly elevated sound, what emerges is an extraordinary vessel for Kiah’s songwriting: a raw yet nuanced examination of grief, alienation, and the hard-won triumph of total self-acceptance. This new studio version of Black Myself is a glorious collision of two vastly different worlds: the iconoclastic alt-rock that first sparked her musical passion, and the roots/old-time-music scene. Produced by Tony Berg (Phoebe Bridgers, Amos Lee, and Andrew Bird) the track was recorded at the legendary Sound City Studios in Los Angeles. Kiah first performed at the Moss Arts Center in 2017.

Ballard Chairperson, Thesis Committee Gary R. Boye Member, Thesis Committee David H. Wood Member, Thesis Committee William R. Schumann Director, Center for Appalachian Studies Max C. Poole, Ph.D. Dean, Cratis D. Williams School of Graduate Studies Copyright by Natalya Weinstein Miller 2018 All Rights Reserved Abstract JIM SHUMATE AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF BLUEGRASS FIDDLING Natalya Weinstein Miller, B.A., University of Massachusetts M.A., Appalachian State University Chairperson: Sandra L. Ballard Born and raised on Chestnut Mountain in Wilkes County, North Carolina, James “Jim” Shumate (1921-2013) was a pioneering bluegrass fiddler. His position at the inception of bluegrass places him as a significant yet understudied musician. Shumate was a stylistic co-creator of bluegrass fiddling, synthesizing a variety of existing styles into the developing genre during his time performing with some of the top names in bluegrass in the 1940s, including Bill Monroe in 1945 and Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs in 1948. While the "big bang" of bluegrass is considered to be in 1946, many elements of the bluegrass fiddle style were present in Bill Monroe's Blue Grass Boys prior to 1945. Jim Shumate’s innovative playing demonstrated characteristics of this emerging style, such as sliding double-stops (fingering notes on two strings at once) and syncopated, bluesy runs.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE For immediate release: June 25, 2014 Accidental Convergence Leads to Albany Band’s Success Oak Hill, New York: What happens when a talented but relatively unknown band with a gifted songwriter leading the way collides with an internationally famous, award-winning bluegrass festival in upstate New York? Lots. That’s what. And that’s exactly what happened to Jim Gaudet and The Railroad Boys from Albany, NY, when they played the Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival for the first time four years ago. Little did Gaudet know how well-received his band and his original songs would be. Little did he know what clout accompanied the wholehearted endorsement of Grey Fox producer, Mary Tyler Doub, one of the leading movers and shakers in the genre of bluegrass music. First appearing as a showcase band, Jim Gaudet and The Railroad Boys got rave reviews from Grey Fox fans — thousands of bluegrass enthusiasts who make an annual pilgrimage to the festival from thirty-some states and over a dozen countries. “Their talent was obvious; their personalities disarming; and it was clear they were a perfect fit for the festival,” says producer, Mary Tyler Doub, from Owings Mills, Maryland. “Our friendship was instant and I felt a level of trust that you rarely find in this business. These guys are the real deal.” Doub continues, “What spoke to me first were Jim’s songs and his voice. He didn’t sound like other singers and I like that uniqueness very much. His lyrics and melodies struck me as fresh and powerful. I wanted those songs and that energy and that sound at Grey Fox.” Of course they were invited back; and the favorite sons of the capital region quickly entered the inner circle of the Grey Fox family.

  • Steep Canyon Rangers Performing Live at Mesa Arts Center Friday, November 2, 2017
    Media Contact: Casey Blake 480-644-6620 [email protected] Steep Canyon Rangers Performing Live at Mesa Arts Center Friday, November 2, 2017 Mesa, AZ (October 5, 2017) – GRAMMY® Award-winning Steep Canyon Rangers will perform live at Mesa Arts Center Friday, November 2 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are on sale now and available at the Mesa Arts Center box office, MesaArtsCenter.com or by calling 480-644-6500. Steep Canyon Rangers effortlessly walk the line between festival favorite and sophisticated string orchestra. They’re as danceable as the most progressive, party-oriented string band, and equally comfortable translating their songs for accompaniment by a full symphony. It’s that mix of serious chops and good-natured fun that earned the Steep Canyon Rangers the GRAMMY® Award for Best Bluegrass Album in 2013 (for "Nobody Knows You"), and that drew celebrated comedian/banjoist Steve Martin to them when he needed a backing band. The Rangers are world-class musicians who are just as at home taking the stage at Carnegie Hall as they are knee-deep in a mountain brook, fly rod in hand. It has been more than fifteen years and nine studio albums since the Steep Canyon Rangers formed in Chapel Hill. The band received rave reviews for their last album (the Jerry Douglas- produced "Radio"), with No Depression commenting that it is "one of those albums that’s packed with hits." Now, in 2017, the band is working on their highly anticipated tenth studio album. “It’s really gratifying to play music with people you can trust, who hear something and pull what’s best out of it into something truly special,” says banjoist Graham Sharp.

  • Curly Seckler & the Steep Canyon Rangers
    Curly Seckler & The Steep Canyon Rangers A Bluegrass Legend Teams with the Hottest Young Band on the Scene Today! THE MASTER Curly Seckler is regarded as one of the greatest tenor singers ever in bluegrass. In 2004 he was inducted into the International Bluegrass Music Association’s Hall of Fame. Born in 1919, Curly began his musical odyssey in 1935, performing on radio in Salisbury, NC. Early in his career, Curly worked with Charlie Monroe, Jim & Jesse McReynolds, Mac Wiseman, The Sauceman Brothers and The Stanley Brothers, before settling into his best-known role as mandolin player and tenor singer with Flatt & Scruggs’s Foggy Mountain Boys. Over the next dozen years, Curly recorded well over 100 songs with them, including many of their most popular hits. The Lester Flatt/Curly Seckler duets from the 1950s are still considered to be among the best bluegrass performances ever. Curly remained with Flatt & Scruggs until 1962. In 1971 he recorded his first solo album on County Records, and by 1973 he had reunited with Lester Flatt in his band, The Nashville Grass. When Flatt passed away in 1979, Curly took over leadership of the Nashville Grass for another fifteen years. Though Curly retired from active touring in 1994, he continued to make occasional appearances at festivals and concerts. Still a vibrant, creative, and charming entertainer, in 2004 he made his first new recordings in ten years. Down In Caroline, released on Copper Creek in the fall of 2005, was a finalist for IBMA Recorded Event of the Year. Curly’s latest CD, Bluegrass, Don’t You Know, was named one of the Top 10 Bluegrass CDs of 2006 by The Chicago Tribune.

    Brown Bag to explain merit in research, ‘knowing’ in writing, Page 3 The Chautauquan Daily Seventy-Five Cents Chautauqua, New York The Official Newspaper of Chautauqua Institution | Friday, June 28, 2013 Volume CXXXVII, Issue 6 STEVE MARTIN & THE STEEP CANYON RANGERS WISEMAN Wiseman discusses emergence of life, its significance FREDO VILLASEÑOR Staff Writer Jennifer Wiseman is an astronomer who does not cease to be in awe of the cosmos. At 10:45 a.m. today in the Amphitheater, Wiseman will lecture on the most recent as- tronomical findings of how the universe and its galaxies have matured over time, eventu- ally making life possible on at least one plan- et. Then she will ask — just as many other lecturers have in the past week — what is humankind’s significance within this vast and elegant universe? “Through astronomy, we are learning how galaxies began to form billions of years ago,” Wiseman said, “and how these galaxies, full of stars and gas, have changed over time.” When the universe began, the only ele- ments present were hydrogen and helium — not enough to create life. But over billions of years, galaxies have become rich with a diverse set of heavier elements. “The processes that make life possible are basically located within stars,” Wiseman said. “Stars have, over time, manufactured through fusion processes heavier elements like carbon and iron that enable eventually planets to form and eventually life to thrive, on at least one planet.” See WISEMAN, Page 4 DE EM TRIUS FREEMAN | DAILY FILE PHOTO Three more views Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers perform before a sold-out Amphitheater on July 2, 2011.
