Celebrating their 46th anniversary, Southern Rail has been delighting acoustic music audiences, coast to coast, for decades. Southern Rail’s bluegrass is high energy, exuberant fun with stunning harmonies, irrepressible good humor and sparkling banjo, guitar and mandolin. The group has 11 recordings to their credit, one of which (a special all Bluegrass Gospel compilation) was nominated for a “Gospel Recording of the Year” award by the International Bluegrass Music Association. The band’s two founding members, guitarist Jim Muller and bassist Sharon Horovitch, were recently inducted by the Rhode Island Bluegrass Alliance into their Bluegrass Hall of Fame. They are joined by Rich Stillman on banjo and harmony vocals, and John Tibert on mandolin and harmony vocals. “One of the most significant groups in contemporary bluegrass … on the cutting edge of creativity.” – Bluegrass Unlimited
