  • Description

    Grammy-winner Ralph Stanley, a patriarch of Americana Music and one of the stars of the O Brother, Where Art Thou? soundtrack releases a new collection of hymns and spirituals entitled 'A Mother’s Prayer'

    For well over a decade now, Dr. Ralph Stanley has been an iconic figure in American music. With generous touches of old-time, gospel and what is now termed “bluegrass music,” Ralph has successfully created his unique brand of Americana, a sound he simply calls “Old-Time Mountain Music.” Determined to find songs that rang true to him emotionally, Ralph searched through the stark ballads of his youth as well as newer compositions written in the ancient, adorned Stanley-style to come up with the material featured on 'A Mother’s Praye'r. Some of his choices he renders a cappella; in others, he is backed by his Grammy-winning band The Clinch Mountain Boys. This is yet another masterful addition to an already impressive recording career spanning over 60 years!
