Blue Moon Rising

Blue Moon Rising garnered international recognition with the release of their third album, ON THE RISE (Lonesome Day Records) that proved to be a symbolic title for the group as the album debuted at #14 on the BILLBOARD Top 50 Bluegrass Chart in 2005. ON THE RISE received tremendous recognition including, but not limited to, "CMT.com Top 10 Bluegrass Albums" and "Gritz Magazine's Top Overall Albums” of 2005." The album spent ten months on Bluegrass Unlimited Magazine's Bluegrass National Survey Top 15 Album Chart and the single, “This Old Martin Box” spent the entire 2006 calendar year in the Top 30 Singles. IBMA members honored the group with a 2006 nomination for the IBMA Emerging Artist of the Year with band leader, Chris West performing in the 2006 IBMA Songwriter’s Showcase.

Fans had eagerly awaited their July 2008 release of their fourth album, ONE LONELY SHADOW (Lonesome Day Records) and were not disappointed. The album highlights the band’s ability to perform their original well-crafted bluegrass songs and also throwing in a few surprises to the mix.

With the release of STRANGE NEW WORLD late in 2010, Blue Moon Rising continues to impress the critics and fans with their talents and hit albums. The group has been chosen to perform as an official IBMA Showcase Artist at this year's International Bluegrass Music Association's World of Bluegrass to be held in the Fall of 2011.

Simply put, this band has it all. They play well, sing well, and write well…Blue Moon Rising is the complete package.
