The Steep Canyon Rangers Release music video and
webisode series in support of Rounder release “Nobody Knows
You” 

NASHVILLE, Tenn., June 7, 2012 – Grammy nominated, IBMA
Entertainers of the Year, the Steep Canyon Rangers, have released new
videos in support of their 5th album, “Nobody Knows You.”
Gaining international notoriety as bandmates with entertainment icon Steve
Martin, these videos are bringing the Steep Canyon Rangers to audiences
beyond their already devoted bluegrass, folk, Americana and jamband
fanbase.

The Steep
Canyon Rangers released their first official video, for the upbeat
foot-stomping song “Long Shot,” which was filmed in their home
of Brevard, North Carolina. “Long Shot,” is being featured on CMT’s
Pure 12-Pack Countdown. The band is mobilizing fans to stream the video and
vote for them on CMT.com.

“The traditional bluegrass group from North Carolina have demonstrated
talent for more than sonorous harmony and breakneck fiddle instrumentals,”
says Stacey Anderson, of the New York Times. This proves true in
the next set of videos the Steep Canyon Rangers have put together. A
series of webisodes that highlight each individual member of the quintet.
They have released five videos, one per member, including Charles Humphrey
III (bass/vocals), Mike Guggino (mandolin/vocals), Graham Sharp
(banjo/vocals), Nicky Sanders (fiddle/vocals) and Woody Platt (guitar/lead
vocals).

Each video includes band members discussing such topics as why the band
came together and background on how they found their individual paths in
music. The videos highlight the unique talents of each member of the Steep
Canyon Rangers. These videos will give fans and critics alike a taste for
their musical styles and influences.

The Steep Canyon Rangers will continue a rigorous tour
schedule throughout this summer as a quintet and with Steve
Martin. “The Steep Canyon Rangers, with whom I have had the
great pleasure of touring and have shared the wonderful honor of
IBMA’s Entertainer of the Year Award,” says Martin, “are
not only great musicians who continue to explore both the new and old
styles of bluegrass and bring a fresh energy to the traditions of American
music, but they are also really fun on a bus.”
