  • Description

    On her latest release, bass virtuoso and 7-time IBMA bass player of the year Missy Raines explores a new path for her musical vision. For anyone familiar with Raines' years of work in the bluegrass arena, New Frontier is the natural extension of her musical curiosity and adventurous spirit.

    It is a vocal album featuring Raines' dusky, emotive alto layered among the cool grooves and expansive, reverb-soaked soundscapes provided by guitarist Ethan Ballinger, mandolinist/acoustic guitarist Jarrod Walker and drummer/percussionist Josh Fox. The album's ten tracks draw from songs written by Pierce Pettis, Sarah Siskind, Ed Snodderly, and even Raines herself, and borrow from Americana, newgrass, indie rock and acoustic jazz.
    This album is certain to expand Raines' profile in roots music and surprise anyone who thought her talents were limited to the bluegrass and new acoustic music. Special guests include Sam Bush, Zach Bevill and former New Hip band member Robert Crawford.
