Stoney Creek announces A Miner's Life album, drops new single and video

MARTINSBURG, W.Va. (June 18, 2021) - "This is going to put Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band on the map," Annette Grady said on Aug. 28, 2020, when premiering the single "A Miner's Life" on the Bluegrass Jamboree. "The song is wonderful. I am expecting it to do really great things for Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band."

Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band has announced the June 25 release of a new studio album, A Miner's Life. The album builds on the momentum of its title track. The latest single from the full-length album is "I Wish I Had A Lifeline," written by Mike Henderson. The song blends a Southern Gospel feel and vocal arrangement with Stoney Creek's traditional bluegrass sound. Stoney Creek's rendition includes lead vocals by Brett Smeltzer. A music video for the song is now available to accompany the radio single.

During the fall of 2020, Stoney Creek's recording of "A Miner's Life" spent five weeks at No. 1 on the Roots Music Report's Top 50 Bluegrass chart. The song spent six weeks at No. 1 on the Bluegrass Jamboree's Top 15 chart. "A Miner's Life" was featured on West Virginia Public Broadcasting's Inside Appalachia program and was among the top played songs for 2020 on numerous bluegrass radio stations. By April 2021, "A Miner's Life" reached No. 1 on the Fan Voted Chart, a rigorous process that includes passing through ten levels of voting.

"It was inevitable -- when a group is receiving support not seen on this chart, they are bound to get to No. 1 eventually. The support for Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band has steadily increased over the 27 weeks "A Miner’s Life" has been on the chart and it pays off in it making it to No. 1," said chart operator Matt Fanton.

"This song, the composition, the recording is pure genius," said bluegrass promoter Ed Henry.

The song "A Miner's Life" was originally recorded by Charlie Waller and the Country Gentlemen shortly before Waller's passing in 2004. The song was written by Bill Dailey, a third-generation West Virginia coal miner. Banjo player and resonator guitarist Troy Stangle helped Dailey arrange the song in the late 1990s. Charlie Waller passed away in August 2004, shortly before his banjo-driven recording of "A Miner's Life" was released.

"I decided to redo "A Miner's Life" with Stoney Creek, more of the way Bill and I put it together, and I actually played the Dobro," Stangle said.

Stoney Creek's version of "A Miner's Life" features a stirring lead vocal performance by guitarist Kenton Catlett, and rich harmonies by bassist Libby Files, mandolin player Brett Smeltzer and Stangle.

In January 2021, Stoney Creek returned to the recording studio to prepare a full-length album. The band chose original material and cover songs that would sit well alongside the album's title track. The album's layered production and field recordings evoke the roots of bluegrass, emphasizing the 18th and 19th century English and Scotch-Irish folk roots that still resonate in the music. The album's artwork matches the tone of music, depicting dusty coal towns in the early 1900s.

Original material on A Miner's Life includes "The One," "I Think I'm Gonna Love Her" and "When The Sun Goes Down," written by Kenton Catlett.

The album's cover material includes a version of "Take Me Home, Country Roads," featuring lead vocals by Libby Files. The track reaches a peak with 1,000 voices joining in for a stadium anthem ending. This large-scale choir arrangement recalls the crowd singing along with the classic song at Mountaineer Field in Morgantown, W.Va., often cited as one of the loudest stadiums in college sports.

Files also revisits "There Is A Time," a classic performed by the Dillards (as the Darlings) on the Andy Griffith Show. Like the title track, "There Is A Time" also includes a haunting melody, recalling English folk ballads (albeit with an authentic Appalachian flavor).

Another highlight of the album is the instrumental tune "Somewheres In West Virginia," composed by the late Andy Boarman. Based in Stoney Creek's hometown of Hedgesville, W.Va., Boarman was a renowned banjo and autoharp player, and instrument luthier. Bluegrass Unlimited called Boarman "the guru of the 5-string banjo" in 1978. "Somewheres In West Virginia" features the ragtime and classic banjo stylings that Boarman learned from his uncle C.C. Stump in the 1920s.

The album concludes with a rousing cover of Bob Dylan's "Fare Thee Well." Dylan's tune was a revision of the British sea shanty "The Leaving of Liverpool," dating back to the California Gold Rush of 1849. "The Leaving of Liverpool," which connects the themes of seafaring and gold mining, was possibly based on an earlier Irish song called "The Leaving of Limerick." Stoney Creek's rendition, with lead vocals by Catlett, may be the only version to include portions of all three songs. The track also includes field recordings from the locations mentioned in "The Leaving of Liverpool," which traces a route from England to San Francisco, sailing around Cape Horn in South America. The album ends as it began, with the sound of a lonesome resonator guitar lamenting the circumstances of a would-be miner.

The music video for "I Wish I Had A Lifeline" is being distributed online by Bluegrass Music TV.

A Miner's Life will be available through all major online digital music services on June 25. Physical copies may be purchased directly from the band's website, www.stoneycreekbluegrass.net, which also includes links to retailers and digital outlets. The entire album is available to radio broadcasters through AirPlay Direct.

Stoney Creek's "A Miner's Life" to be featured on Inside Appalachia

Listen here

MARTINSBURG, W.Va. (Oct. 5, 2020) - "A Miner's Life," the latest single from Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band, is set to appear on the Oct. 16 edition of West Virginia Public Broadcasting's Inside Appalachia. The episode deals with Black Lung Disease among coal miners.

"A Miner's Life" is an autobiographical song written by William Dailey, who was a third-generation coal miner from Richwood, West Virginia, before honoring his father's wishes to leave the coal industry. Dailey's father suffered from Black Lung Disease, as depicted in the song. "A Miner's Life" has resonated among bluegrass music fans, reaching No. 1 for multiple weeks on the Bluegrass Jamboree's Top 15 Chart for radio airplay. The music video for "A Miner's Life," featuring Dailey, has held the No. 1 position for several weeks on Bluegrass Music TV's Top Ten music video chart.

"A Miner's Life" features a stirring lead vocal performance by guitarist Kenton "Red" Catlett, and rich harmonies by bassist Libby Files, mandolin player Brett Smeltzer, and resonator guitarist Troy Stangle.

Stangle assisted Dailey with the song's arrangement in the late 1990s. A few years later, Dailey was working as a bus driver for national recording artist Charlie Waller and the Country Gentlemen. Waller recorded "A Miner's Life" for his final album, which was released after his death in 2004. Louisville Music News praised the song's "haunting melody," and the Washington Post called it a "coal country lament." Sixteen years later, Stangle suggested the song to his Stoney Creek band mates. Stangle wanted to capture Dailey's original tempo and the resonator guitar arrangement that the duo had developed.

Stoney Creek hits No. 1 on radio chart with "A Miner's Life"

MARTINSBURG, W.Va. (Sept. 10, 2020) - Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band's new single "A Miner's Life" has reached No. 1 on the Bluegrass Jamboree Top 15 Chart on Sept. 5.

Stoney Creek's Troy Stangle noted, "In the late '90s, I joined the Nickel Misery band, where Bill Dailey had written the song "A Miner's Life" about his dad.

Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band "Fast Train" music video to premiere on TheBoot.com

UPDATE: The video is AVAILABLE HERE.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Sept. 3, 2018) - Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band has partnered with TheBoot.com for the exclusive premiere of the band's "Fast Train" music video on Sept. 17. The video will be available starting at 9 a.m. (ET).

"Fast Train" was written by guitarist Kenton "Red" Catlett and country artist Gib Sage. The song details an itinerant musician and laborer's journey and anticipated return home. Sage, a West Virginia native and Nashville recording artist, recorded a country version of the song in 1980. That project was shelved when Sage's record label folded. Catlett continued performing his bluegrass arrangement of the song, and has included it on Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band's double album, Live On Location. The music video was filmed in West Virginia's Eastern Panhandle. The main location was an historic railroad station in Charles Town, with additional scenes filmed at Martinsburg's Roundhouse Center and various sites in Berkeley, Jefferson and Morgan counties. Additional aerial shots were filmed in Chicago, Illinois, and Amarillo, Texas. The video features Amtrak passenger cars, along with CSX and Norfolk Southern freight trains.

The Boot is a top source for country music news, videos, songs and interviews. According to parent company Townsquare Media, The Boot is among "the leading country music digital destinations based on web traffic." The Boot is part of Townsquare Media's Taste of Country network. Townsquare Media owns and operates 317 radio stations and approximately 500 live events in 66 markets. The company is the third largest owner of radio stations in the U.S.

Live On Location is a 2-CD project noted for its original compositions. In addition to "Fast Train," Catlett also wrote "The Traveling Song," "When the Sun Goes Down" and "Thirty Years." The instrumental "Antietam Turnaround" was composed by banjo player Troy Stangle. The rest of the album is rounded out by traditional and gospel bluegrass staples from the band's live shows, such as mandolin player Brett Smeltzer's take on "I'm Working on a Building," "Are You Washed in the Blood?" and many more. "Fast Train" is currently being serviced to radio broadcasters through AirPlay Direct.

Stoney Creek's live shows have been entertaining audiences for years, prompting Around the Panhandle magazine to name the band "West Virginia's classic bluegrass band." Stoney Creek features an updated and high energy approach to traditional bluegrass, which Bluegrass Unlimited praised as "mainstream bluegrass at its best." According to Libby Files, the band's founder, "we try to put on a show that will entertain any music fan, even if they don’t consider themselves a bluegrass fan. The show offers something for everyone."

Live On Location is available through most online digital music services, and as a 2-CD set from retailers such as Amazon and CD Baby. The project is available to retailers through Alliance Entertainment. The album can be purchased directly from the band's website, www.stoneycreekbluegrass.net, which also features links to retailers and digital services.

Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band releases "Thirty Years" music video

MARTINSBURG, W.Va. (June 27, 2018) - Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band has released an official music video for "Thirty Years" - the latest radio single from double album Live On Location. "Thirty Years" is available to radio broadcasters through AirPlay Direct. The music video can be viewed on Stoney Creek's Facebook and YouTube pages.

Live On Location is a 2-CD project featuring five original compositions, including the instrumental "Antietam Turnaround" by banjo player Troy Stangle. Guitarist Red Catlett contributes four original songs. In addition to "Thirty Years," Catlett also wrote "The Traveling Song," "When the Sun Goes Down" and "Fast Train"(co-written with late country artist Gib Sage). The rest of the album is rounded out by traditional and gospel bluegrass staples from the band's live shows, such as mandolin player Brett Smeltzer's take on "I'm Working on a Building," "Are You Washed in the Blood?" and many more.

"These CDs really turned out great," said Smeltzer. "I think this project will go over great with anyone who purchases or hears it on the air."

Vocalist and bassist Libby Files said "we try to put on a show that will entertain any music fan, even if they don’t consider themselves a bluegrass fan. The show offers something for everyone."

Stoney Creek's live show and sound system have been entertaining audiences for years, prompting Around the Panhandle magazine to name the band "West Virginia's classic bluegrass band." Stoney Creek features an updated and high energy approach to traditional bluegrass, which Bluegrass Unlimited praised as "mainstream bluegrass at its best."

The Live On Location concept developed in 2016. Stoney Creek had been recording two-track stereo mixes from the band's soundboard for several years, and band members expressed interest in making some of these available to fans. In late 2016 and early 2017, the band brought out a studio multi-track console to record a series of public and private shows, adding extra microphones to capture the audience as well. The double album features two complete sets from Stoney Creek's live performances. The project was recorded and mastered without compression, to preserve the full dynamic range of the performances. As a result, the album is a few decibels quieter than most recordings from the past few years (including Stoney Creek's previous albums), but the improved sound quality should be noticeable to careful listeners. Live On Location captures the band's long-standing commitment to bringing near-studio quality sound to live concert audiences.

Live On Location also captures a recent phenomenon at Stoney Creek shows - the dancers. This trend began occurring on a regular basis in 2017 and has been encouraged by the band. One goal for this album was to include the audience, and the double album is ultimately a tribute to the fans.

"This might be the best Stoney Creek project yet," according to Stangle.

Live On Location is available through most online digital music services, and as a 2-CD set from retailers such as Amazon and CD Baby. The project is available to retailers through Alliance Entertainment. The album can be purchased directly from the band's website, www.stoneycreekbluegrass.net, which also features links to retailers and digital services.

Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band to perform at Orr’s Farm Market

By Johnna Leary, The Journal Weekender (May 24, 2018)

MARTINSBURG – Enjoy live bluegrass music this weekend in a beautiful farm setting as the Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band performs at Orr’s Farm Market for their Live Bluegrass Weekend! The Orr’s Farm Market in Martinsburg hosts a monthly Live Bluegrass Weekend where local bands can perform outdoors during marketplace hours.

“Katy Orr-Dove and the staff at Orr’s Farm Market have gone out of their way to create a home for live music in the area. Music fans can hear the music they enjoy without traveling or buying expensive tickets. The idea of a farm market and traditional music goes back to an earlier time when people were closely involved in their community, and the community was self-sufficient. These events are a great place to see old friends, and it’s great to know that Live Bluegrass Weekends are a regular event throughout the spring, summer and fall,” said Libby Files, Vocalist in the Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band

The Live Bluegrass Weekends feature music for all types of bluegrass fans.

“Live Bluegrass Weekends usually include several hours of music each day, so we prepare extended set lists and often include new material for audiences. Our music ranges from hard driving traditional bluegrass to bluegrass gospel and some slower dance numbers,” said Files.

Now a monthly event, the Live Bluegrass Weekends have expanded to offer more opportunities for music fans and musical performers.

“We started with one festival a year and had bluegrass bands play that event. Then we realized how many wonderful bands there are in our local area and we wanted to showcase all of our local talent. We decided that customers would enjoy the live bands while visiting us for their shopping and pick your own needs,” said Katy Orr-Dove, General Manager of Orr’s Farm Market

“Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band began playing at Orr’s Farm Market several years ago at the annual Fall Festival. To build on the success of the festival, Orr’s Farm Market began hosting Live Bluegrass Weekends with a variety of bands. Stoney Creek occasionally filled in once or twice each year. In 2018, we signed on to play Live Bluegrass Weekends on a regular basis, hoping to turn the residency into regular destination for music fans,” said Files.

Visitors of all ages can enjoy live bluegrass music in a fantastic farm setting for no charge this weekend.

“The live shows at Orr’s Farm Market have already turned into a great destination for bluegrass fans. We try to put on a show that will entertain any music fan, even if they don’t consider themselves a bluegrass fan. The show offers something for everyone, and the market is convenient for buying locally grown foods and other items. There are usually events for kids and it is a great place for families to visit again and again,” said Files.

“It’s free entertainment for lots of folks to enjoy! We have lots of families and senior citizens who are looking for a fun, affordable way to enjoy a weekend. The trip out here is full of beautiful scenery to enjoy. Visitors can view our new baby bison calves and baby goats as they head back to our farm. Now they can stop by the market for snacks and then sit under the tent and enjoy the tunes. The Lions Club will be opening their food trailer these weekends to serve delicious food and raise money for their wonderful projects. Stop in for some pickin’ in the country at Orr’s Farm Market,” said Orr-Dove.

Visitors are encouraged to bring their own lawn chairs for the Live Bluegrass Weekend.

Stoney Creek has No. 1 album on AirPlay Direct for September

MARTINSBURG, W.Va. (Oct. 2, 2017) - Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band is honored to announce that its new double album Live On Location was No. 1 on AirPlay Direct's Top 50 Albums chart for September.

The album's chart position was partly driven by its lead single, "The Traveling Song," which debuted at No. 1 on the Top 50 Singles chart on Sept. 18.

"I heard the song on Annette Grady's show ... I really wanted to play it on my show too," said Jeff Lipchick, host of Bluegrass From the Smokies on the Bluegrass Jamboree.

"This project had me mesmerized the entire time," said Al Shusterman of KUBU's Bluegrass Backroads. Shusterman noted that the album "featured great traditional songs, fine vocals and superb musicianship."

"The Traveling Song" is one of four original songs from Live On Location written by guitarist Red Catlett. The album also features an original instrumental titled "Antietam Turnaround" composed by banjo player Troy Stangle. The rest of the album includes traditional bluegrass and bluegrass gospel material that has increasingly drawn fans to the band's live concerts. Highlights include bassist Libby Files' take on "Those Memories of You" and mandolin player Brett Smeltzer's performance of "I'm Working on a Building."

The band cites bluegrass media outlets such as Cybergrass, as well as the social media popularity of "The Traveling Song" music video, for generating interest among broadcasters. Stoney Creek is hoping to schedule performances in areas where Live On Location is receiving radio airplay, as well as places where the band has developed a strong social media following.

AirPlay Direct is a leading platform for delivering broadcast music to radio stations worldwide. According to the company's website, "the Top 50 Albums chart displays releases/albums with the most song downloads by radio within a set period of time."

Fans and broadcasters can find Live On Location though Stoney Creek's website, www.stoneycreekbluegrass.net.

Live On Location was released on AirPlay Direct on Sept. 17. On Sept. 18, "The Traveling Song" reached No. 1 on the Top 50 Singles chart and the album reached No. 1 on the Top 50 Albums chart.

Stoney Creek release single and music video from double live album

MARTINSBURG, W.Va. (Sept. 18, 2017) - Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band has released a new single and music video for "The Traveling Song." The track is the first single from the band's new double live album, Live On Location. "The Traveling Song" is available to radio broadcasters through AirPlay Direct. The music video, featuring West Virginia's mountain scenery and a touch of vaudeville humor, can be viewed on Stoney Creek's Facebook and YouTube pages.

Live On Location will be available from Calv'ry Music on Sept. 29. Stoney Creek will be premiering a live stream of the album as a Facebook Live Event on Sept. 24 at 4:00 p.m. (ET). The stream will be replayed on Oct. 1.

The album contains five original compositions, including the instrumental "Antietam Turnaround" by banjo player Troy Stangle. Guitarist Red Catlett contributes four original songs. In addition to "The Traveling Song," Catlett also wrote "Thirty Years," "When the Sun Goes Down," and "Fast Train"(co-written with late country artist Gib Sage). The rest of the album is rounded out by traditional and gospel bluegrass staples from the band's live shows, such as mandolin player Brett Smeltzer's take on "I'm Working on a Building," "Are You Washed in the Blood?" and many more.

"These CDs really turned out great," said Smeltzer. "I think this project will go over great with anyone who purchases or hears it on the air."

Stoney Creek will be celebrating the release of Live On Location with performances at Orr's Farm Market's Fall Festival in Martinsburg, W.Va. on Sept. 23 and 24, and at the Outer Banks Bluegrass Island Festival in Manteo, N.C. on Oct. 4.

Stoney Creek's live show and sound system have been entertaining audiences for years, prompting Around the Panhandle magazine to name the band "West Virginia's classic bluegrass band." Stoney Creek features an updated and high energy approach to traditional bluegrass, which Bluegrass Unlimited praised as "mainstream bluegrass at its best."

The Live On Location concept developed in 2016. Stoney Creek had been recording two-track stereo mixes from the band's soundboard for several years, and band members expressed interest in making some of these available to fans. In late 2016 and early 2017, the band brought out a studio multi-track console to record a series of public and private shows, adding extra microphones to capture the audience as well. The double album features two complete sets from Stoney Creek's live performances. The project was recorded and mastered without compression, to preserve the full dynamic range of the performances. As a result, the album is a few decibels quieter than most recordings from the past few years (including Stoney Creek's previous albums), but the improved sound quality should be noticeable to careful listeners. Live On Location captures the band's long-standing commitment to bringing near-studio quality sound to live concert audiences.

"It almost sounds like a studio album," said bassist and founder Libby Files upon hearing the playback.

"It sounds live," said Catlett. "It is a live recording and I think it is just fine."

Live On Location also captures a recent phenomenon at Stoney Creek shows - the dancers. This trend began occurring on a regular basis in 2017 and has been encouraged by the band. One goal for this album was to include the audience, and the double album is ultimately a tribute to the fans.

"This might be the best Stoney Creek project yet," according to Stangle.

Live On Location will be available through most online digital music services, and as a two CD set from retailers such as Amazon, Walmart, Target and CD Baby. The project will be available to retailers through Alliance Entertainment. The album can be purchased directly from the band's website, www.stoneycreekbluegrass.net, which also features links to retailers and digital services.

Stoney Creek release music video for "Never Tell Me"

MARTINSBURG, W.Va. (Nov. 21, 2016) - Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band has released a music video for the single "Never Tell Me". The video is available on YouTube and at StoneyCreekBluegrass.net. "Never Tell Me" is the second single and video from the band's album "Memories & Tears". The single is available to broadcasters through AirPlay Direct and to fans through online retail and streaming outlets.

"Never Tell Me" is one of eleven original tracks on "Memories & Tears" written by the late Deanna Stottlemyer, sister of Stoney Creek's Libby Files. The band decided to record a full album of Stottlemyer's original material after recording two gospel tunes for 2012's "Are You Ready?" project.

"Memories & Tears" was released to radio broadcasters in June via AirPlay Direct, and the album went to #1 on the website's Top 50 Albums chart. The album's 11 tracks also held the top 11 spots on AirPlay Direct's Top 50 Singles chart.

Stottlemyer had performed and recorded six of the songs, leaving Stoney Creek with a blueprint for their rendition. Stottlemyer's and Files' mother, Ruby Kindle, then gave Files an additional five songs that only existed as lyrics on paper.

"Some of them she sang in her band, but then my mom gave me a stack of songs that she wrote and said 'why don't you do something with these?' So that's what I did," Files says. "I give the guys credit; they're all singing on it with me," Files says. "It's a project that I started mainly for my mom and dad; that's why I called it "Memories & Tears". I wanted to get all of my sister's music on a CD for them. There are 11 songs on the project - six are gospel songs and five are traditional bluegrass. I tried to keep them with a traditional flavor."

Stoney Creek has been praised as "mainstream bluegrass at its best" by Bluegrass Unlimited. Frank Jurney of the Berryville Bluegrass Series has noted that "Libby [Files] is among the rising number of female vocalists who are making a big impact on bluegrass music."

"Memories & Tears" is the first project to feature Stoney Creek's current lineup, including Libby Files on vocals and bass, Brett Smeltzer on mandolin and vocals, Red Catlett on guitar and vocals, and Troy Stangle on banjo and vocals.

Stoney Creek release "Memories & Tears"

MARTINSBURG, W.Va. (June 23, 2016) - Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band has announced the July 1 release of "Memories & Tears", a new album featuring the music of Deanna Stottlemyer.

"All of the songs were written by my late sister, Deanna. She passed away 12 years ago and she left a big pile of music," says Stoney Creek's Libby Files.

The album's first single, "Come Stay Awhile", was released on May 1, along with a music video filmed at Sleepy Creek Lake in Berkeley County, West Virginia.

"Memories & Tears" was released to radio broadcasters on June 15 via AirPlay Direct, and the album went to #1 on the website's Top 50 Albums chart. The album's 11 tracks also held the top 11 spots on AirPlay Direct's Top 50 Singles chart.

Stottlemyer had performed and recorded six of the songs, leaving Stoney Creek with a blueprint for their rendition. Stottlemyer's and Files' mother, Ruby Kindle, then gave Files an additional five songs that only existed as lyrics on paper.

"Some of them she sang in her band, but then my mom gave me a stack of songs that she wrote and said 'why don't you do something with these?' So that's what I did," Files says. "Over the last six months, I put my style of bluegrass music to them. They all turned out pretty good."

Files wrote music for three of the new songs ("Give Them All To Jesus", "Won't It Be a Happy Time?", and "Keep Your Eyes Toward Heaven"). By this time, Kenton Catlett, who had played in Stottlemyer's band, joined Stoney Creek. He remembered writing music to one of the songs ("Someone To Share the Load") years earlier. Catlett also composed new music for Stottlemyer's final song, "Some Sweet Day", which he performs on the album in his lead vocal debut with Stoney Creek.

"I give the guys credit; they're all singing on it with me," Files says. "It's a project that I started mainly for my mom and dad; that's why I called it "Memories & Tears". I wanted to get all of my sister's music on a CD for them. There are 11 songs on the project - six are gospel songs and five are traditional bluegrass.

Stoney Creek plus two

HEDGESVILLE, W.Va. (February 16, 2015) - Stoney Creek's Libby Files and Brett Smeltzer have announced that "West Virginia's Classic Bluegrass Band" is entering the 2015 season with two additions: banjo player Troy Stangle and guitarist Red Catlett. Files described recent rehearsal sessions with the new lineup as "unbelievable."

Troy Stangle previously played banjo and dobro with All4Hym, who recorded on the Rural Rhythm Christian label. His stage and studio experience made Stangle a logical pick for Stoney Creek.

"Troy displays a vast array of versatility and uniqueness in his banjo skills," according to the band's mandolin player Brett Smeltzer. "He is a veteran with a musical talent that is not overpowering, but what audiences will appreciate and find very pleasing to the ear. It's great to have Troy on board with Stoney Creek."

The band is also bringing on board guitarist Red Catlett. Catlett had filled in with Stoney Creek throughout 2013 and 2014 when guitarist Ed Barney's job responsibilities kept him from playing show dates. In January 2015, Barney decided to step back from Stoney Creek, and Catlett was a natural fit.

"When I was first getting into bluegrass music nearly 30 years ago, Red was the first person that I started playing music with ... rather quickly focusing on both harmonies and arrangement," Smeltzer noted. Smeltzer and Files agreed that "over the past few years, Red has been a reliable source to help out Stoney Creek with his vocal and guitar skill on an 'as needed' basis. It is great to know that we have that same commitment from him now on a full-time basis."

"I would like to welcome the new members to the band," Files said. "I am excited about the upcoming lineup and the new opportunities that it will bring."

Longtime banjo and dobro player Darrell Sanders is on the band's injured reserve list. Sanders is facing surgery for a damaged nerve that has limited his playing ability.

Stoney Creek plans to announce 2015 show dates, as well as returning to the studio to finish work on a new album. The new project will be a follow-up to 2012's "Are You Ready?" album, which gained the band airplay in over 200 radio markets and a music video in national rotation on BlueHighways TV.

Stoney Creek's upcoming tour dates and contact information can be found at StoneyCreekBluegrass.net. Radio service, booking, and press inquiries for Stoney Creek can be made by contacting Calv'ry Booking and Management through CalvryBooking.com or by calling 304-268-1785.
