album coverTHE LINVILLE RIDGE BAND: Hopes and Dreams

Some folks say this is North Carolina piedmont bluegrass, relying heavily on mandolin and banjo breaks and trio harmonies, but we also include a duet along with dobro and fiddle work and a new flatpick guitar stylist with a modern, rhythm-slamming sound,

   About The Linville Ridge Band
The name, The Linville Ridge Band, was chosen to tie us to the beautiful part of the Blue Ridge Mountains where we call home. Linville Mountain (it's proper name) was mentioned in the classic song "The Brown Mountain Lights" by Scotty Wiseman, native son to the area. We are extremely proud of the musical heritage associated with the part of the country we call home. Bluegrass was formed by individuals from this region and we owe a great debt for the foundations they have laid.
