Entertainers of the Year, 2011 International Bluegrass Music Association Awards
"One of the most engaging string bands around!" – Washington Post
In March 2011, the Steep Canyon Rangers released its first collaborative record with Steve Martin, Rare Bird Alert, which debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Bluegrass Chart and at #43 on the Billboard Top 200. In 2010, the latest solo record from Steep Canyon Rangers, Deep in The Shade, remained in the Bluegrass Top 10 on Billboard for 18 weeks. While headlining festivals like MerleFest and Bonnaroo alongside Steve Martin for part each year, the Rangers continue to perform alone as a quintet on such stages as Telluride, RockGrass, and “A Prairie Home Companion” with Garrison Keillor. They have made recent appearances on the Ellen Degeneres show and Conan O’Brien.
The Steep Canyon Rangers emerged in 2001 as college picking-buddies from Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Together for more than a decade, the Rangers perform a new brand of Bluegrass music, and have become one of today’s premier acoustic ensembles. With smooth vocals, smart songwriting, ferocious instrumentals and jaw-dropping harmony, the Rangers are bringing Bluegrass to music lovers across the USA and around the world. Steep Canyon Rangers are: Mike Guggino (mandolin/vocals), Charles Humphrey III (bass/vocals), Woody Platt (guitar/lead vocals), Nicky Sanders (fiddle/vocals), and Graham Sharp (banjo/vocals).
