Details:
Southern Railâs performances are high-energy exuberant fun, with riveting harmonies, irreverent humor and sparkling banjo and mandolin solo work. The groupâs reverence for the traditional shines throughout their live concerts and recordings, and is reflected in their prolific songwriting.

Southern Rail's brand new 30th Anniversary recording âLive at the Linden Tree!â captures Southern Rail's magical 30th anniversary concert. The concert hall was completely sold out that evening. True to form, Southern Rail did not want to turn anyone away at the door, so they put 2 rows of seats ONSTAGE BEHIND THEM to seat the overflow! And the entire evening's magic was captured in this new CD.

Over the years, Southern Rail's recordings have climbed to #11 on Bluegrass Unlimitedâs Top Thirty Singleâs Chart, and have hit #1 on a number of radio stations across the nation. Their songs have graced Bluegrass Unlimited's Top Thirty Singles Chart for a combined total of 32 months, receiving heavy national airplay. One of Southern Railâs earlier CDâs, a special Bluegrass Gospel compilation entitled Glory Train, was nominated for Best Gospel Recording of the Year by the International Bluegrass Music Association. Southern Rail has been selected by the New England Foundation for the Arts to be included in their prestigious Touring Roster.
