The Nashville-based bluegrass group returns to the CMC stage. Since they were founded in 2005, The SteelDrivers have seen lineup changes, become regulars on the US Billboard Bluegrass charts, and been nominated for multiple Grammy awards, finally securing a win in 2016 for Best Bluegrass Album. Rolling Stone calls their style more like bluegrass-meets-gutbucket-blues and praises vocalist Gary Nichols forceful, husky sound.
