New Cumberland is a dynamic bluegrass band with a wide repertoire of both traditional and newer music. Formed in 2006, the band's members bring a combined total of over 100 years of professional experience to this new and exciting acoustic project.

Featuring inventive solo work, driving rhythms and three part vocal harmonies, the band's musical integrity and joy in playing together resonates in every performance. The resumes for the various individuals in New Cumberland include bluegrass stints with the Dixie Flyers, Blackwell Side Road, Northern City Limits, Rural Retreat, Lonesome Wind, Hot Springs and the late, great Cumberland Wail - as well as wide ranging experiences outside bluegrass in rock and folk music.

When New Cumberland plays, the audience is treated to an organic process. Changes in dynamics, musical texture and mood are transmitted effortlessly from player to player. Proficient in the straight ahead driving bluegrass of Bill Monroe and Jimmy Martin, New Cumberland also stretches the genre in directions taken by the Seldom Scene, John Hartford and Old and in the Way.

A performance by New Cumberland is an exciting journey through an ever- changing bluegrass landscape. The train's ready to roll. Climb on board.
