The SteelDrivers
October 14, 2023 // 8pm
Maybe you first heard of them from the hit TV show, "Yellowstone," but it's time to get to know them better! The SteelDrivers started off as a casual jam session and are now one of today’s leaders in the
Americana/Bluegrass music world. Despite changes in their lineup over the years, The SteelDrivers continue to tour and perform their unique brand of Contemporary Bluegrass to audiences around the world. As the band prepares for their highly anticipated performance at the historic Newberry Opera House, let's take a closer look at their remarkable career and continued impact on the music scene. The SteelDrivers were formed in Nashville, Tennessee by a group of seasoned musicians who shared a deep love for traditional Bluegrass music. The original lineup included Chris Stapleton (vocals, guitar), Mike Henderson (mandolin), Tammy Rogers (fiddle), Richard Bailey (banjo), and Mike Fleming (bass). Their self-titled debut album, released in 2008, quickly gained critical acclaim and introduced the band's unique sound to a wider audience. Tammy Rogers says, “Mike Henderson, our original mandolin player, is really the guy responsible for getting the band together. He is the one that knew everyone and made the calls to get everybody together at his house for an informal night of playing some bluegrass tunes! I had no idea at the time that he and Chris Stapleton, our original lead singer and guitarist, had been writing together for four to five years at that point and had already amassed an incredible catalog of great songs.”
