Steep Canyon Rangers are at the Ponte Vedra Concert Hall on Friday, October 3, 2025.
Hailing from both the Appalachian and Piedmont regions of North Carolina, the Rangers have long held traditional bluegrass paramount while possessing an exceptional ability to bring it down the mountain and to incorporate accessible influence from all walks of the region. With the band’s last few albums, they have gained recognition from well beyond the world of bluegrass, earning a reputation as some of the most influential songwriters in Americana today.
Steep Canyon Rangers is made up of Graham Sharp (banjo and vocals), Mike Guggino (mandolin/mandola and vocals), Aaron Burdett (guitar and vocals), Nicky Sanders (fiddle and vocals), Mike Ashworth (drums and vocals), and Barrett Smith (bass, guitar, and vocals).
The three-time Grammy nominees have released 14 studio albums and three collaborative albums with actor and banjoist Steve Martin. They’ve been inducted into the North Carolina Music Hall of Fame and appeared on some of music’s biggest stages. In 2013, ‘Nobody Knows You’ won the GRAMMY Award for Best Bluegrass Album while 2012’s ‘Rare Bird’ and 2020’s ‘North Carolina Songbook’ garnered nominations in the same category.
