Unspoken Tradition is about new, original bluegrass. Inspired by their own influences and the roots of traditional music, they bring a sound that is both impassioned and nostalgic, hard-driving but sincere. Their 2019 release from Mountain Home Music Company, “Myths We Tell Our Young,” debuted at No. 5 on Billboard’s bluegrass chart and yielded five top-charting radio singles, including a No. 1 spot on the Bluegrass Today chart for “Dark Side of the Mountain.” Their material is mostly original and reflects the ever-changing culture of Western and Central North Carolina, which they call home. The band has earned a fervent following in the Southeast, selling out shows in Asheville as well as Nashville’s legendary Station Inn. They have also performed twice on the coveted Watson main stage at MerleFest. With heavy airplay on Sirius XM’s Bluegrass Junction and ever-growing streaming numbers, Unspoken Tradition is a fast-rising voice of a new generation of roots music artists. Their debut recording, 2013’s “Simple Little Town,” saw quick success in radio and with tastemakers. Their follow-up release, “Miles Between” was featured on the nationally syndicated NPR show The World Cafe. Represented by Midwood Entertainment, Unspoken Tradition plays nationwide.
