[Notes]
Deep-rooted bluegrass troupe The Po' Ramblin' Boys kick it into high gear on Never Slow Down, their newest collection of classic songs and soon-to-be-classic originals. The GRAMMY-nominated group pours every ounce of passion they have into these recordings as they always have, this time with even more fervor and zeal with the addition of new band member Laura Orshaw. Taking on material by their heroes the Stanley Brothers, Hazel Dickens & Alice Gerrard, George Jones and more, the Po' Ramblin' Boys bridge the gap between the past and present, proving the eternal importance of bluegrass and making it accessible to all.
