About us….
Concocting songs of love, whiskey, heartbreak, and everything in between, Pittsburgh, PA’s the Mon River Ramblers have gone from street corners to Telluride stages; all along the way creating their unique vision of bluegrass music. What started as late night pickin’ sessions around a dimly-lit candle and a robust bottle of whiskey soon blossomed into a five piece bluegrass machine. The Mon River Ramblers have quickly and rightfully earned a reputation as one of the top bluegrass bands in the city of Pittsburgh. The band is comprised of life-long musicians and music lovers who have a shared passion for creating an electrifying, soulful, and innovative take on bluegrass music.
In May of 2009, the Mon River Ramblers released their debut album, ‘27’, engineered by Doug Wilkin at Wilkin Audio in Regent Square, not far from downtown Pittsburgh. The record showcases the group’s impressive vocals, musicianship, and arrangements. It has been receiving positive reviews in local and national publications as well as airplay across the country.
