Since that time, he’s often been asked: “When are you going to put out a bluegrass record?” Dierks insists he was just waiting for the right time and with a hectic tour schedule winding down, the right time is this summer!

But ‘Up on the Ridge’ isn’t simply a bluegrass album. It’s more accurately described as acoustic roots music and will feature some of the most widely-acclaimed bluegrass and acoustic pickers working today, including the Del McCoury Band (previously featured on Dierks’ ‘Modern Day Drifter’ album), Alison Krauss, Tim O’Brien, Sam Bush and Chris Thile’s band, Punch Brothers. Fellow country hitmaker Miranda Lambert is also a featured guest vocalist on the disc.
