2021 - Turning Ground is based in Salyersville, Kentucky, rooted deep in the Appalachian Mountains of Eastern Kentucky. Their style of bluegrass and bluegrass gospel is original and built around five people that simply love the music! The core band, consisting of Arnett (lead vocals and guitar), Hale (bass, guitar, and harmony vocals), Hensley (banjo), Ralph Adams (guitar and harmony vocals), and Kyle Kleinman (mandolin), are joined by several guest musicians, including Jason Barie on fiddle and Randy Kohrs on resophonic guitar. 11 new recordings, each spotlighting the band’s unique and inspired sound that incorporates a combination of bluegrass and Kentucky roots with a hint of outlaw country. Crazy House, they hit you with in-your-face banjo and bass from the first few notes, and don’t let up until the album’s over. Pair that sound with the strong, emotional lead vocals of Nathan Arnett, and the overall result here is straight-ahead mash that fans of Volume Five, The Boxcars, and other similar groups should certainly enjoy.
