The Arkamo Rangers are a group of youthful pickers that provide an exceptional sound. They take Acoustic/Bluegrass music, and twist it into a new and exciting style of musical expression.
Uniting in the fall of 2002, the Arkamo Rangers are comprised of bass, mandolin, guitar, and banjo. These born rockers are bringing their creativity and showmanship to bluegrass lovers of all ages. The Arkamo Rangers reflect a round perspective of music thru their love for natural acoustic instrumentation. In doing so, they create an explosive blend of original songs, defining the attitude driven bluegrass of the Ozarks. As well as their song writing, these boys are true performers. The show that Arkamo creates radiates energy not just from their music, but also from their presence on stage. They capture the ears, as well as the eyes.
In a short time period, the Arkamo Rangers were added to a Missouri based Record label, Mayapple Records, and released their first self titled CD in December 2004. The 2nd album, "A New Timey Thrill" was released in May 2006. Arkamo's continued touring efforts have brought the bands energetic live show to many mid-westen and mountain region venues.
