Chris Jones & The Night Drivers Release New Bluegrass Single
14 years ago Liv Carter Comments Off on Chris Jones & The Night Drivers Release New Bluegrass Single
From the press release:
“What You Do,” the latest single from multi-faceted bluegrass artist Chris Jones will be released, via Airplay Direct, from his latest CD, Cloud of Dust. Jones, along with his band, the Night Drivers, has received worldwide accolades for the previous two releases, “The Love She Left Behind” and “One Door Away.” Heavy rotation landed the entire project in the Top 20 of the Bluegrass Music Profiles magazine chart, and “What You Do” is expected to continue the momentum.
Reviews for Cloud of Dust have been nothing but admirable, lauding Jones’ award-winning songwriting skills and distinctive vocal stylings, not to mention the outstanding instrumental and vocal skills of the Night Drivers, which includes the banjo expertise of Jones’ fellow Sirius/XM on-air talent, Ned Luberecki. “What You Do” embodies that, as Mark Stoffel’s mandolin solely sets the tone with a funky, rhythmic instrumental hook and the others steadily blend in. Notably featured are guests Jeremy Garrett, of the Infamous Stringdusters, on fiddle and harmony vocals and Mike Witcher on dobro.
Indicative of such praise, Terry Herd, one of bluegrass radio’s most prominent hosts, will feature Chris Jones this week on his syndicated show, “Into the Blue,” where he will be interviewing Jones and spinning tracks from the album.
Fan response to Chris Jones & the Night Drivers has been equally enthusiastic, as the band earned the most votes in the International Bluegrass Music Association poll, in which voters were asked which artist they would most like to see at the IBMA Fanfest, an annual event held each fall in Nashville. For those who are unable to attend or wish not to wait that long to see the acclaimed group, catch them sooner at the Appalachian Uprising in Ohio, the Bill Monroe Memorial Bluegrass Festival in Bean Blossom, Kentucky, the Red White and Bluegrass Festival in North Carolina, and the Huck Finn Jubilee in California.
