Rhonda Vincent Artist Snapshot:

Vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Rhonda Vincent was a bluegrass child prodigy, already playing semi-professionally with a family band by the time she was in kindergarten. After recording several straight bluegrass albums on Rebel Records, Vincent switched to major label Giant and made a go of it as a new traditionalist-style country singer, then returned once again to bluegrass. Back in her element, she flourished, further developing her pop-influenced style (often with her band The Rage), which made good use of her yearning, emotion-filled vocals and precise mandolin and fiddle playing.

ONE STEP AHEAD was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Bluegrass Album.

When Rhonda Vincent first hit the national bluegrass scene in the early '90s, fans were amazed by her clear voice and fleet-fingered fiddle and mandolin playing. Over time, however, the depth of Vincent's musical talent has become even more impressive than her chops. With ONE STEP AHEAD, the musician truly comes into her own as one of the giants of the genre, even writing five of the albums' 12 tunes. Backed by a band that includes stalwarts Stuart Duncan (fiddle) and Bryan Sutton (guitar), Vincent approaches both her originals and the carefully chosen standards with the same full-bore energy.

Of special note are the absolutely spine-tingling harmony vocals she and brother Darrin share on "Pathway Of Teardrops" and "Fisher Of Men." Like other sibling vocalists such as The Everlys and The Delmores, Rhonda and Darrin sing as one instrument, their perfectly in-tune voices often sounding a bit like two notes on an accordion being played at once. Sonically, the disc is pristine, giving even the traditional numbers a contemporary feel. An exciting mix of hot picking, stellar vocalizing, and wonderfully varied material, ONE STEP AHEAD reveals Rhonda Vincent as one of the finest all-around talents in bluegrass.
