to Balsam Range Bluegrass Band
Balsam Range is celebrating the success of their latest single, Last
Train To Kitty Hawk. The title cut from their second album has hit
No. 1 on the national Bluegrass Unlimited Chart for the month of
September! The album is sitting at No. 5. Both the song and album
have been climbing the chart since the national release in late
January.
BR credit’s the DJs for playing their music and to all the fans for
requesting the song. LTKH is currently being played on national radio
stations along with XM/Sirius Radio. They are also played locally on
WNCW - 88.7FM. “This is every exciting for us,” Darren Nicholson
said. “We are based in Western North Carolina, but this shows that we
are a legitimate act nationwide.”
Over the summer BR has been quite busy playing at many national
festivals and venues as well as continuing their WNC dates. This
weekend the band has shows Friday at the Cherokee Bluegrass Festival,
Saturday in Gettysburg, PA., and Sunday at the Champion Hills Country
Club in Hendersonville - a public benefit for the Free Clinics of
Henderson County.
Thanks again to all the DJs and fans for helping to make LTKH number
one!
