Steep Canyon Rangers - Recommend Me

Copied!

{Verse 1}
Don't look down and don't look back
No doubt the hounds are on our tracks
And they're wailing on the nearest hill
But the silent ones are closer still

{Verse 2}
Oh, love of mine, you can be sure
I'll say your name 'fore I close this door
And if there's wisdom growing old
I don't want to drink my coffee cold

{Chorus}
But when they start talking, you'll defend me
When the roll is called, you'll recommend me
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

{Verse 3}
And if the ocean's deeper than the waves
Am I anymore than I am this day?
And I had hoped that I might wait a while
To face the hounds and stand my trial

{Chorus}
But whеn they start talking, you'll defend mе
When the roll is called, you'll recommend me
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

{Verse 4}
Once I thought that in my arms
This world might never do you harm
And all this time I could not see
It's been you protecting me

{Bridge}
And so I'll keep walking right beside you
I'll help you fly should you decide to

{Chorus}
But when they start talking, you'll defend me
When the roll is called, you'll recommend me
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

{Outro}
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

The Steep Canyon Rangers are a progressive bluegrass band that was formed in Chapel Hill, North Carolina in 1999. The band was initially comprised of Graham Sharp on banjo and harmony vocals, Woody Platt on guitar and lead vocals, and Charles R. Humphrey III on bass and harmony vocals. The trio met while attending the University of North Carolina and bonded over their shared love of acoustic music.

As they began playing impromptu jam sessions together, the group found themselves drawn to the traditional sounds of bluegrass music. Their sound continued to evolve when mandolin player Mike Guggino joined the band, bringing with him a wealth of experience and a deep love for the genre.

The band's big break came in 2009 when actor and banjo player Steve Martin joined forces with them, giving them a major boost in popularity. The collaboration with Martin helped bring the Steep Canyon Rangers to a wider audience, allowing them to showcase their unique blend of traditional bluegrass and modern influences.

With their impressive musicianship and heartfelt songwriting, the Steep Canyon Rangers have become a staple in the bluegrass music scene. They continue to tour and record music, captivating audiences with their energetic performances and infectious sound.
