They seamlessly blend traditional bluegrass with a modern flair, creating a sound that's both familiar and with a fresh appeal to new audiences.

Darin and Brooke Aldridge's music career took off really fast when they started playing with John Cowan in 2016. John Cowan is a famous bass player who is in the Bluegrass Hall of Fame and helped start a band called New Grass Revival.Playing with John Cowan has helped Darin and Brooke get to perform with other big-name artists like Keb Mo', Vince Gill, and Jimmy Fortune. John Cowan says that he loves Brooke and Darin's singing, their playing, and how kind they are to everyone they meet. He says that being friends with Darin and Brooke has made his life better.
Darin and Brooke Aldridge recently played with John at the Dumplin Valley Farm Session event, and everyone was blown away by their performance. Amazing to have such internationally famous musicians playing in the barn.
Darin and Brooke Aldridge's music reaches far beyond the festival stage. They've had multiple chart-topping albums, and they have been featured on CMT, GAC, and PBS. They've even performed at the Grand Ole Opry 17 times, which is pretty fancy.
'Inner Journey': A Mix of Friends and Growth
Darin and Brooke Aldridge's recent album, 'Inner Journey,' is a true demonstration of how they’ve grown over the years. It showcases their incredible vocal harmonies, their ability to tell stories through music, and several special guests. Each track on the album is a gem, from their soulful rendition of "Every Time You Leave" to their upbeat cover of "Teach Your Children." Just in time for the Christmas season they've released a new album, "Hometown Holiday". It's definitely going on my wishlist from Santa this year.
