Steep Canyon Rangers are Asheville, North Carolina's GRAMMY winners, perennial Billboard chart-toppers, and frequent collaborators of the renowned banjoist (and occasional comedian) Steve Martin. Today, the band has shared the results of what is perhaps their most singular musical partnership to date - teaming with Philadelphia soul legends Boyz II Men and their hometown Asheville Symphony to completely overhaul the Rangers' original "Be Still Moses," which was first recorded on their 2007 breakout album Lovin' Pretty Women. The premiere coincides with the announcement that Steep Canyon Rangers have re-signed with Yep Roc Records. "It feels like coming home," says Sharp of the partnership. "The Yep Roc family was among the first to welcome Steep Canyon Rangers when we were just pups. As we've grown, so have they. We're incredibly excited for the future and all the music it holds." The Rangers are made up of Woody Platt on guitar and vocals, Graham Sharp on banjo and vocals, Mike Guggino on mandolin/mandola and vocals, Nicky Sanders on fiddle and vocals, Mike Ashworth on drums and vocals, and Barrett Smith on bass and vocals.
