Bath Chronicle

Voted 'Best Local Band in Nashville' by the Tennessean, the four classically trained musicians of Harpeth Rising bring an exciting and distinctively new sound to the folk genre.

With a banjo and a fiddle, you might think they're traditional bluegrass – but think again.

Cello and hand drums round out the ensemble, creating a truly unique sound.

Their virtuosic instrumentals are coupled with intimate vocals and sincere lyrics.

The group met at the Indiana University School of Music and were united, and continue to be driven by, their eclectic musical interests.

A little bit bluegrass, a little bit classical, a little bit folk and a whole lot of original, Harpeth Rising is a band to watch.

The quartet has recently begun promoting their latest project: an album of songs written by David Greenberg, father of Jordana Greenberg, the band's violinist.

Harpeth Rising has been performing songs by David Greenberg for several years to much acclaim, and fans have requested this project for some time.

Before the release of this album, Harpeth Rising's touring was largely focused on promoting their second album, Dead Man's Hand, produced by multiple Grammy-winner, Bill VornDick (Alison Krauss, Bob Dylan, and Bela Fleck).

Harpeth Rising will be performing at Bath's American Museum for free on Sunday at 2pm.
