Chasin’ Steel – Fresh Runs and Tight Lines

    Marquette’s Chasin’ Steel has been the area’s leading bluegrass band now for quite some time—and they’re CD is the top seller for just as long here at Jim’s Music. 

    There’s good reason too—this is good-time music, catchy as all getout, well-written original tunes mixed with some great classics, and it’s all a winning combo.  “Fresh Runs and Tight Lines” has a great sound due to the production and studio of Jerry Kippola, and here we’re catching Steel at their finest.  From the barnburning original opener, “Lonesome and Blue”, to the two signature bonus tracks, this is nonstop UP bluegrass bliss served up hot. 

Their original “Drink My Dinner” even receives some national airplay—it’s one that’ll have you singing (and drinking) along.  Strong vocals and mandolin chops come via Adam Carpenter, who also writes the bulk of the originals here.  The Kuhlman brothers provide excellent backup vocals and banjo, guitar and bass—Jonah Kuhlman even plays the hammer dulcimer on this CD and at the live shows.

Here at Jim’s Music in Marquette, we’re pleased to have Chasin’ Steel’s expert banjo picker Jacob Kuhlman as a part of our sales and teaching staff.  Stop by any of our locations today to pick up a copy of this great CD,
