Virtuoso instrumentations and luscious three- and four-part vocal harmonies have made Front Range one of the best bands on the contemporary bluegrass circuit. While their albums are rooted in the traditional sounds of Bill Monroe and Flatt & Scruggs, the band has incorporated influences ranging from the Beatles, Robert Johnson, Celtic and classical music. One Beautiful Morning, Front Range's third album, was named Best Gospel Recording of 1995 by the International Bluegrass Music Association; Ramblin' On My Mind, their fourth album, reached the number three slot on the National Bluegrass Survey compiled by Bluegrass Unlimited magazine and spent several weeks in the Top Ten of the Gavin Americana charts in 1997.
