For Press Information and Release:
Combine the good times and
instruments of a front porch hoe down with the muscle of a power trio, and the
savvy of veteran touring musicians. Coat that with a little caffeine-laced three
part harmony and you begin to understand the sound of Rollin' in the Hay.
This Birmingham, Alabama based band has become one of the
forerunners in the "Newgrass" musical revolution in America. Their
constant touring from colleges to concert halls has taken them coast to coast
playing their souped-up brand of acoustic grassrock.
Opening shows for everyone from Greg Allman to Widespread
Panic, the sound of the "Hay" has put a smile on many happy faces. No
strangers to marketing, the group keeps in touch with its fans (Hayheads)
through a professionally serviced web site and a well-maintained mailing
list.
The music of Rollin' in the Hay has been described as
"Groove Grass", "Renegade Bluegrass", and even "Redneck
Speed Metal". Their catalog of six albums well represents all of the above
descriptions. The band also supports live taping by fans, resulting in thousands
of hours of bootleg tapes traded widely on the Internet.
Another interesting facet of the bands recording career is
their involvement with CMH records in Los Angeles. With their instrumental
tributes to artists such as REM, Eric Clapton, Tim McGraw, and Phish, the boys
have woven a sparkling tapestry of mandolins, guitars, and banjos to these
artists' greatest hits.
Check 'em out. You'll be glad you did.
