Search - Nu-Blu :: All The Way

Nu-Blu, one of the fastest rising acts in bluegrass music, is releasing their fifth album, All The Way. All The Way is the follow up to their last album, Ten, which coincided with the foursome's musical journey as a band for a full decade.

With this new album we are going all the way by stepping outside of genre boundaries and letting our fusion of musical tastes and interpretations guide us like never before, says lead singer Carolyn Routh. Get ready, we have a few surprises in store and we've never been more excited.

The North Carolina natives are releasing the 10 track disc that showcases the individual musician s talents of Carolyn and Daniel Routh, Levi Austin and Austin Koener and features some of the top Bluegrass & Country songwriters today such as Carl Jackson, Doyle Lawson, J.D. Crowe, Louisa Branscomb, Rick Lang, Kristy Jackson, Rick Tiger and more. Other special guest musicians on the album include Rob Ickes, Ron Stewart, Martin Parker and Greg Luck.
Featured on this album is Rock And Roll Hall of Fame icon and music legend Sam Moore who has proven to be masterful at crossing genres from Rhythm And Blues to Country to Pop and now is planning on leaving his mark in the Bluegrass world. The musical icon traded vocals with Carolyn on Jesus and Jones, a song that pays homage to the late George Jones.
Also included on the album is a wonderful version of the 1983 #1 hit song by Ann Murray A Little Good News , which is still as relevant today...imagine a world free of hate and violence, such a powerful message.

In addition, the Queen of Bluegrass Rhonda Vincent makes a special vocal appearance on That s What Makes The Bluegrass Blue which is a song about a young girl s grief over losing her fiancé in a mining accident. The tale is based around the Duvin mine disaster of 1939 near Providence, Kentucky.
