If continuity is your watchword - if you fall hard for bands at first listen and pray they don’t change too much, then friend, Mountain Heart is gonna break yours. In a genre once noted for its conservatism, Mountain Heart has been on a ten-year, freewheeling acoustic adventure. The energy and vision to achieve this without spiraling into oblivion has come largely from the two musicians who’ve been there from the beginning: fiddler Jim VanCleve and banjo player Barry Abernathy. When they launched in 1999, Mountain Heart was a straight-shooting bluegrass band. As personnel shifted (bringing in current bass player Jason Moore and a couple of guitar hotshots), the sound grew more aggressive, sometimes even transgressive, as they made several high-energy albums that further defined their unique place.
