Steep Canyon Rangers are Asheville, North Carolina’s GRAMMY winners, perennial Billboard chart-toppers, and frequent collaborators of the renowned banjoist (and occasional comedian) Steve Martin. The Rangers can now add their hometown Asheville Symphony to their long list of musical companions on the new album Be Still Moses.

The collaboration was recognized for its ‘sublime harmonies and soulful ad-libs” by Rolling Stone and resulted in both the Rangers and Boyz II Men performing the song live together in October 2019.
