Cumberland Gap Connection – A Whole Lotta Lonesome

Cumberland Gap Connection is a highly energetic bluegrass band with a sound all their own. This 4-piece group is comprised of musicians from Kentucky and Tennessee. Following up on their 2008 release of “Grandpa’s Swing”, Cumberland Gap Connection strives to take their driving style of bluegrass to the next level with aggressive instrumentation mixed with a distinctive vocal harmony style. “Grandpa’s Swing” was met with much success, as the song “Gravel Springs” was in the Top 10 on the Bluegrass Now Fan’s Choice Top 20 charts eight of nine months, earning the No. 1 spot in bluegrass for the months of July and September in 2008. While continuing in the tradition of playing some of the “old standard” songs in bluegrass, CGC takes pride in performing as much original material as possible. The band does this not only for the sake of being different, but just to be who they are, musicians with the common goal of pleasing
fans and promoters by doing what they love to do.
