Rounder signs The Steeldrivers

The SteeldriversRounder Records has announced the signing of The Steeldrivers to the Rounder label. The band is based in Nashville, TN and composed of the following musicians.

  • Mike Henderson – mandolin
  • Chris Stapleton – guitar
  • Richard Bailey – banjo
  • Mike Fleming – bass
  • Tammy Rogers – fiddle

Several members of the band have impressive resumes that read like a who’s-who of bluegrass and classic country. Not only that, but the song writing skills of this bunch of pickers is impressive as well. I’m told the band’s debut album is currently being mixed and contains all new original songs.

The Steeldrivers are booked by Roe Entertainment and more information about the band members, along with a tour schedule, can be found on the band’s website.
