Description
Exploring the free range of acoustic string band music, Free Range Pickin' combines the rhythmic punch of newgrass, the melodic drive of traditional old-time instrumentals and the rich textures of contemporary pop rock into a fresh new sound that has found a welcome home in the Upper Midwest's thriving acoustic music scene.
In just a short time the quartet has attracted the attention and admiration of fans, media, and musicians, playing for a wide variety of well-respected festivals and venues, television and radio performances, and film projects. The band has been honored to warm up the crowd for influential musical pioneers such as Bela Fleck and the Flecktones and have shared the stage with such well-respected bluegrass greats as Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver.
Finding a home among the new wave of young, innovative acoustic performers such as Nickel Creek, Crucial Smith and Yonder Mountain String Band, FRP explores a variety of inspired new music and original compositions through its own "popgrass" approach, imaginative arrangements, and "jamgrass" attitude. The traditional instrumentation (mandolin, banjo, guitar and upright bass) and lush four-part harmonies, coupled with the band's eclectic and infective approach to its original music, appeals to die-hard traditionalists as well as fans of acoustic music, jazz and rock and roll.
Interspersed among the music is a lively stage banter that reveals the fun-loving folks behind the instruments... these guys have fun and they love to share it! In short, they deliver a stunning performance that is thoroughly entertaining. And, the buzz extends well beyond the band's live shows... the band's debut CD From the Other Side of the Fence was nominated for a MN Music Academy Award for best bluegrass/old-time recording, highlighting the band's considerable songwriting talent.
Free Range Pickin' is applying their rock and roll sensibilities to a whole new appreciation of original acoustic music and is quickly endearing itself to a new, young audience that "didn't know they liked bluegrass." In short, Free Range Pickin' is helping to write the next chapter of acoustic music in America. We invite you to be a part of the excitement... www.freerangepickin.com!
