Up on the Ridge (CD)

2010 release from the Country superstar. The all-acoustic Up on the Ridge is a powerful, beautiful album steeped in the Bluegrass and Roots music that moved Dierks Bentley to be a Country musician in the first place. Dozens of talents have contributed in some way to this project. Besides the five co-written by Dierks himself, the songs come from such varied sources as Bob Dylan, Buddy and Julie Miller, U2 and Kris Kristofferson. Kristofferson participated on the project as a guest vocalist as well, along with a slate of today's best traditional Country singers, including: Alison Krauss, Vince Gill, Jamey Johnson, Miranda Lambert, Sonya Isaacs and Chris Stapleton of the Steeldrivers. Players on the project include: Chris Thile and the Punch Brothers, the Del McCoury Band, the legendary Sam Bush, dobro player Rob Ickes, guitarist Bryan Sutton, fiddler Stuart Duncan, and mandolin player Ronnie McCoury.

Nashville crooner Dierks Bentley, a longtime bluegrass fan, recruited the Del McCoury Band, Chris Thile, Sam Bush, Vince Gill, Jamey Johnson, Kris Kristofferson, Alison Krauss, Miranda Lambert, and Tim O'Brien to help flesh out 2010's Up on the Ridge, adding some exquisite front-porch picking to this collection of bluegrass-tinged originals with Bentley's winning blend of roots rock and country pop. ~ James Christopher Monger, All Music Guide
