East Nash Grass’ New Single, Lonesome Song.
East Nash Grass perfectly balance nature’s beauty and heartbreak’s grief with their new single, Lonesome Song the latest from their upcoming album, All God’s Children.
The hardship of loss can seem irrelevant compared to the beauty of the world, Ringing through the valleys and fields, loneliness stands contrary to the rest of nature, which seems so well matched – James Kee.
Like that well-matched relationship, the 2024 IBMA New Artist of the Year-winning quintet use a subtle, poignant side of their musicianship to balance the highs and lows of Lonesome Song’s lyrics with a happy-go-lucky bluegrass feel, twisting and turning with major melodies to land on minor tones, following the story beautifully.
East Nash Grass is one of the greatest bluegrass bands out there at the moment… wrote Whiskey Riff, who premiered the music video illustrated and animated by Milly Raccoon a day early. Fans can watch the video for Lonesome Song below.

With All God’s Children, East Nash Grass have whittled down their immense catalog to an all-new, ten-song collection featuring five new originals, two deep-cut covers, two tunes from friends, and a string-band reimagining of a traditional Liberian chant; a feat only accomplished by the no-rules mentality of one of the most talked about bands on the scene. A worldly blend of spirituality, connectedness, and world-class picking – members of East Nash Grass formerly accompanied Dan Tyminski, Tim O’Brien, Sierra Hull, Rhonda Vincent, and more – All God’s Children is the next chapter in their interstellar rise to greatness.

About East Nash Grass:
East Nash Grass
East Nash Grass exemplifies the best of what bluegrass has to offer—as being named the 2024 IBMA [International Bluegrass Music Association] New Artist of the Year would suggest. But their breathtaking talent as singers, instrumentalists, and composers are just the beginning, the secret to East Nash Grass lies in their unflinching ability to be themselves.
With a lifetime of experience in both new and legacy acts such as: Dan Tyminski, Tim O’Brien, Sierra Hull, Rhonda Vincen and more, the tradition of bluegrass is fundamental to who they are as musicians and performers. Yet it’s their irreverent, adventurous, and audacious tendencies as next-gen performers that light a fire under audiences. After hundreds of sets and countless late-night jams, through personnel changes, industry changes, and a never-ending string of unprecedented world events, East Nash Grass has coalesced into the hair-raising ensemble of Harry Clark on mandolin; Cory Walker on banjo; James Kee on guitar; Maddie Denton on fiddle and Jeff Partin’s on bass and Dobro
Their love of both bluegrass and the absurd can be felt in both their live shows and on their new album All God’s Children (Mountain Fever, 2025). Expectations of what should and shouldn’t work are challenged as the paradox of authenticity is revealed. This is no mere imitation of bluegrass; this is bluegrass.
