Sounds Like: If the Grateful Dead, circa 1971, (American Beauty era) had been playing bluegrass instruments instead of electric ones they may have sounded something like Railroad Earth. Even in the new millenium, Railroad Earth's instantly classic sounding songs and timeless vocals could sound at home in any generation. (Felton Pruitt - XM Satellite Radio)
Record Label: SCI Fidelity
Type of Label: Indie
