When it comes to music, there's a closeness among family members that cannot be overstated. Harmonies are sweeter, rhythms are tighter, and emotions are heightened. For Williamson Branch, music and family have been melding for three generations. Despite a varied background that incorporates bluegrass, country, gospel and dance, this family band are traditionalists in every sense, carrying on a sound that springs from the very roots those archival styles imply.

Their polished approach to music helped propel their single, Blue Moon Over Texas to the # 1 spot on the RMR Bluegrass Chart for 7 weeks. They garnered the award for Valley Star Family Vocal Group of the Year while Melody Williamson was recognized as the International Bluegrass Music Association's Momentum Vocalist of the Year in 2020. Since their formation in 2014 Williamson Branch has appeared on hundreds of stages including, The Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Bluegrass First Class in Asheville, NC, Thomas Point Beach Bluegrass Festival, Brunswick, ME, The Central Canadian Bluegrass Awards, Bill Gaither's Fall Homecoming, and Guy Penrod's Gospel Music Showcase.

Williamson Branch's last 4 recordings for Pinecastle Records have elicited rave reviews while their social media following has grown to over 457,000 bolstered by several videos with tens of millions of views. Individually they've been given the honorary titles, Members of the West Virginia Country Music Hall of Fame, Daughters of Bluegrass, Kids on Bluegrass, and Tomorrow's Bluegrass Stars, but it's their stage show that inspired Bluegrass Today to write, 'put this band on your 'must see' list.'
