Steep Canyon Rangers - Tell The Ones I Love

Review by May Castro

Steep Canyon Rangers' album, Tell The Ones I Love, is a beautiful blend of bluegrass and folk music that highlights the band's exceptional musicianship and songwriting. The album features a mix of traditional and original songs, each delivered with the band's signature harmonies and virtuosic instrumentation.

The album starts off with the upbeat "Stand and Deliver," a song that showcases the band's tight harmonies and driving rhythm. Other standout tracks include the title track "Tell The Ones I Love," a poignant ballad about love and loss, and "Mendocino County Blue," a lively instrumental that features some impressive picking from the band's guitarists.

Throughout the album, Steep Canyon Rangers show off their versatility and ability to blend different styles of music. They seamlessly transition from the traditional bluegrass sound of "Camellia" to the more contemporary folk sound of "Blow Me Away." The album also features some notable collaborations, including "Graveyard Fields" with bluegrass legend Sam Bush and "Take the Wheel" with singer-songwriter Edie Brickell.
