Harpeth Rising is Bluegrass meets British Invasion with rich harmonies, driving instrumentals and powerful lyrics. The result is a sound that is both rooted in the folk tradition and simultaneously pushing the envelope.
Having studied music for a combined 70 years, they are capable of expressing the full range of human emotion using the only 13 strings have between them.
But they dont stop there: Their harmonies run the gamut from traditional Bluegrass to full on Gregorian organum. Articulate lyricists, expressive and innovative players and singers, Harpeth Rising is the complete package.
The members met while earning performance degrees at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, and despite their diverse beginnings (hailing from vastly different cultures and geographic areas), found in each other a unified musical idea and a brand new one at that.
"Tender virtuoso violin solos...Andrews Sisters-like harmonies...Harpeth Rising play their cards with class and conviction." - Lee Zimmerman, No Depression
