PineCone presents: Balsam Range

Balsam Range came together by happenstance in 2007, during an informal kitchen jam session in the rural depths of Western North Carolina. What started as friends gathering to pick tunes led to gigs being booked and original songs taking their place in the modern bluegrass canon. And fans gladly came along for the ride. The band has become one of the most decorated and award-winning acts in bluegrass, including the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) honors for Entertainer of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and many more. Balsam Range has released 14 albums, with several number one singles on the bluegrass charts. But what remains most important to the band is something that goes back to those kitchen-jam origins: genuinely connecting with an audience through the sacred, ancient act of live performance.
