Mountain Faith Band's "That Which Matters" is Out Now!

Emerging Artist of the Year nominee of the IBMA, Mountain Faith Band's brand new release That Which Matters is available everywhere today! North Carolina's Mountain Faith is Summer McMahan on fiddle and lead vocals, her brother Brayden on banjo, their dad Sam, on bass, with Luke Dotson on guitar, and Cory Piatt on mandolin.

Although the band has been performing together since 2000, it's only been in the last few years that the music industry has begun taking note of the talented ensemble. In fact, earlier this month, Summer was awarded the IBMA's Momentum Award in theVocalist category. While bluegrass fans may have been on the Mountain Faith "bandwagon" for a few years now, the rest of the country began taking notice of the family band through regular appearances as contestants on NBC television's popular show, America's Got Talent, making it through to the semi-finals in New York City.

That Which Matters has already drawn excellent reviews from radio and media. The first single, "Emily (It's Love)" was released earlier this year and John Lawless of Bluegrass Today said, "...here Summer McMahan sings it solo with a slurry, slippery style that is very modern while remaining true to her bluegrass roots. Simply brilliant."

The same could be said about every track on this positive, gospel-tinged project. The album showcases the vocal talents of the entire band with Summer singing most all the lead vocals supported by beautiful, almost haunting in places, harmony vocals. There are plenty of hot licks and high lonesome harmonies to make this a favorite among bluegrass fans while the song selection is carefully thought out with the lead track, "Someone Prayed" setting the tone for a listening experience full of songs of hope, love, celebration  and praise. And even though it would be tough to choose just one favorite, the closing track, "There Is A God" is surely a top contender.

1. Someone Prayed
2. Been There Done That
3. Brother John
4. Absent From the Body
5. So In Love With Jesus
6. Run To Meet Him
7. Emily (It's Love)
