Town Mountain

Town Mountain Is An American Bluegrass Band From Asheville North Carolina. The Band Occupies The Common Ground Between Traditional Bluegrass Outlaw Country And Pure Old Time Mountain Music. It's A Group That Harnesses The Frantic Energy Of The Modern Punk String Band Yet Still Remains Respectfully Rooted In The Tradition Of Bill Monroe. The Band Has One Foot Proudly Planted In The Path Of Traditional Bluegrass And One Foot Stepping Out Into The Unknown Forefront Of American String Music. Town Mountain Is From Asheville NC. Born Out Of The All Night Jam Sessions And Fertile Picking Scene Of Western North Carolina Town Mountain Has Emerged As One Of The Premiere Young American Bluegrass Bands. Great Original Songwriting Tight Vocal Harmonies A Charismatic Stage Presence And Instrumental Expertise Place This Group In The Upper Tier Of Contemporary Acoustic Bands. But In The End Despite These Qualities It’s Always The Undeniable Irresistible Energy Of A Live Town Mountain Show That Truly Sets This Group Apart. This Unique Energy Has Had Town Mountain Winning Over Audiences In Theatres Clubs House Concerts And Festivals Across The Country For Almost Three Years Now From Oregon To Maine To California And Back Home To Carolina. It All Started In 2005 When The Guys Decided To Take Their Homegrown Sound On Its First National Tour. That Summer Was Spent Swaggering Across The Country Sharing Their Music In Smoky Bars And Hometown Honkytonks Nightly. The Tour Ended With A Bang In Colorado Where Town Mountain Joined The Ranks Of Steep Canyon Rangers Chatham County Line And Yonder Mountain String Band By Winning The Prestigious Rockygrass Band Competition.
