Balsam Range

Celebrating its 18th year together, bluegrass juggernaut Balsam Range is charging headlong toward the unknown horizon of what is currently unfolding as the group enters a new, promising chapter of its vast, ever-evolving musical career. Coming into 2025, the group: Caleb Smith (guitar, vocals), Tim Surrett (bass, dobro, vocals) Alan Bibey (mandolin, vocals) and banjoist Marc Pruett—is gearing up to not only release new music, but also once again hit the road, touring majestic theaters and backwoods gatherings—all in the name of bluegrass music.

2025 also brings a special guest on board to many shows across the nation, Kentucky native Don Rigsby. On fiddle and vocals, Rigsby brings that familiar “high lonesome sound ”to the mix and is backed by an impressive resume, making him a seamless addition to the group.
