 “A line-up change usually brings an element of uncertainty, particularly to a band as close as Steep Canyon Rangers. Fans need have no fears. Platt’s were big shoes to fill but Aaron Burdett has feet of a similar size. He deepens the Rangers traditional feel while together they continue to make some of the finest contemporary bluegrass around.”

“Aaron comes in and is immediately a very strong and confident singer. As soon as we heard his versions of our songs we knew his was the voice we wanted to add to this band. He’s got the vocal delivery, he can play the guitar. He’s checked off all the boxes and it feels like he’s been with us forever at this point.”
