Following in the footsteps of legendary brother acts like the Stanley Brothers, Jim & Jesse, and the Osborne Brothers, The Gibson Brothers’ bluegrass is a stirring mix of heritage and harmony. The brothers grew up on a dairy farm in New York, then traveled the world playing bluegrass. Their latest album, The Darkest Hour, reflects their unique vantage point. With two awards for International Bluegrass Music Association Entertainer of the Year, The Gibson Brothers take traditional and make it revelatory, lighthearted, and profound for all.
