The Gravel Yard
Bio:
The Gravel Yard formed modestly in an actual gravel lot deep in the Ozark Mountains of Stone County, Arkansas; fueled by moonlit jam sessions it was quickly evident that this group’s chemistry was something more. Once a completely informal entity The Gravel Yard made their way onto the local bluegrass music scene wherein they began to amass a steady following and began to play to larger and larger venues. Their sound can best be described as an eclectic amalgamation of hard driving traditional bluegrass and progressive musicality - juxtaposed with a soulful Country and Americana flavor.
With the addition of fellow Arkansan Christopher Denny (formerly of Partisan Records) on lead vocals the band has broadened their influence and dialed in on a sound that harkens back to the days of yore. Denny’s unique vocal contributions with his otherworldly old-time natural vibrato brings strength to an already “stout as Kentucky Bourbon” crew of ass-kicking grassers - gifting to the bluegrass world a musical footprint unlike any other.
Join us and for a brief moment in time you too can be transported back to the days of a country church singin’ - feel the history of American Roots Music - when the instruments were handmade and the front porch was a stage; deep into the mountains and down a dirt road and when you arrive you can be part of The Gravel Yard.
