Mile Twelve is a fresh, hard driving young band beautifully walking the line between original and traditional bluegrass. Fast gaining recognition for their outstanding performances in bluegrass and folk circles, Evan Murphy, Bronwyn Keith-Hynes, Nate Sabat, BB Bowness and David Benedict write captivating songs and daring instrumental pieces from diverse influences. Banjo luminary Tony Trischka says "Mile Twelve is carrying the bluegrass tradition forward with creativity and integrity."
The band was awarded the 2017 International Bluegrass Music Association Momentum Award for newcomer band for their significant contribution to bluegrass music. They are not just accomplished musicians (they have all had impressive educations and careers already); as Tim O'Brien said, Mile Twelve are “serious players who have serious fun” and they are “a group to watch in the coming decade”.
Mile Twelve has quickly been on the rise ever since their formation in 2014. They released their debut 6-track self titled EP, and performed extensively throughout the U.S., Ireland and Canada, including several major festivals: Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival, FreshGrass Festival, Wind Gap Bluegrass Festival and Joe Val Bluegrass Festival. Tracks from the EP were featured on Sirius XM Bluegrass Junction's "Hand Picked with Del McCoury" and Spotify's "Fresh Bluegrass" playlist.
The group was also selected as formal showcase artists at the North East Folk Alliance, have opened for Tim O'Brien at the Station Inn in Nashville, and won the Podunk Bluegrass Festival Band Contest. Their debut full-length album, recorded in Nashville with producer Stephen Mougin at the helm, was just released last fall.
