Biography
Embracing a crossover sound between progressive bluegrass and acoustic country, Monroeville has caught the attention of music lovers on both sides of the tracks.
Although they are a young band, Monroeville’s members have reached significant career milestones – 4 of the young men are GRAMMY nominated artists. Several are prolific songwriters with XM/Sirius charting songs and even an International Acoustic Music Awards runner-up for "Rambler's Song" by Daniel Salyer.
In their first year, Monroeville has performed at a number of nationally recognized festivals and showcases such as an appearance at Grey Fox and the International Bluegrass Music Association World of Bluegrass. Some of their most notable appearances include The Today Show and singing the National Anthem for a NASCAR Bristol Motor Speedway Race.
Monroeville had the privilege of hosting the first Hard Rock Cafe AcoustiCana Series in Nashville, TN during IBMA’s World of Bluegrass, that was sponsored by Epiphone, the Gibson Bus, and The AcoustiCana Journal. They are also sponsored by D’Addario Strings.
Monroeville are stars in the making. At the band’s core is a belief that good music knows no boundaries. They seamlessly flow through a range of musical styles and sounds, from bluegrass to country and pop, gaining the attention of a rapidly expanding fan base.
