New Road Bluegrass Gospel Band Wins
Multiple PowerGrass Awards Including Group of the Year
NASHVILLE,
TN (3.15.06) East-Tennessee based New Road bluegrass gospel band has been
named GROUP OF THE YEAR for the 2005 PowerGrass
Bluegrass Gospel Music Awards. Band members also received awards including
Gary Kidwell for "Songwriter of the Year"; Vic Graves "Dobro
Player of the Year"; and Doug Johnson "Bass Player of the Year."
The PowerGrass Awards are based on all-bluegrass/gospel albums released
in 2004 and/or 2005. PowerGrass is an independent bluegrass gospel music
radio and internet radio program. Awards were derived from listener responses
with final analysis by David M. Bissell, Owner. All awards are posted
at PowerGrassRadio.com under
"bluegrass awards."
New Road has been together for 11 years continuing their mission to see
that bluegrass gospel music moves beyond the current audience by breaking
into new venues to proclaim the message of hope. Most of the band's songs
are written by members of the group and consist of sound, scriptural-based
lyrics accompanied by strong melodies; all while being supported by some
of the finest bluegrass musicians in the country.
New Road was chosen as a Showcase Performer at The
International Bluegrass Music Association's World of Bluegrass held
last October at the Nashville Convention Center. The band just released
their newest album, "The Message"
that is receiving critical acclaim including Nashville's Music Row
writer Robert K. Oermann stating, "This sextet hails from Luttrell,
TN, the hometown of Kenny Chesney and Chet Atkins. Spirited bluegrass
gospel with seven of the tracks being sturdy originals by member Kidwell."
