About this Event
Dr. Marc Pruett (banjo); Tim Surrett (bass, dobro, baritone, and lead vocals); Caleb Smith (guitar, lead & baritone vocals)and Alan Bibey (mandolin, vocals) make up Balsam Range. They thoughtfully and respectfully adopted the name of a majestic range of mountains that surround part of the home of three of the founding members in Haywood County, NC. The Great Balsam Range is where the Great Smoky Mountains meet the Blue Ridge Mountains. Since its formation in 2007, Balsam Range has become one of the genre’s most award-winning acts. The group has garnered 13 IBMA awards on the heels of 11 critically acclaimed albums. Balsam Range has left audiences spellbound while headlining major festivals from coast-to-coast, selling out venues across the nation and in multiple appearances at the Grand Ole Opry. In 2025, Buddy Melton stepped down and Bluegrass great Don Rigsby joined the group on select dates as a special guest, lending his fiddle and “high lonesome” tenor vocals to bring a new energy and sound to the beloved group’s audience.
