Burlington, MA. (Top40 Charts/ Rounder Records) - One of the most influential groups in contemporary bluegrass, Blue Highway fuses tradition with progress to create their own unique and timeless style. The band's forthcoming February 12, 2008 Rounder Records release, Through The Window Of A Train, reveals not only the instrumental virtuosity and impeccable vocal interplay of today's top progressive musicians, but also a depth of songwriting talent unrivaled on today's bluegrass scene.

Having played roles in bluegrass music's most influential acts such as Alison Krauss And Union Station, Larry Sparks, Doyle Lawson and Ricky Skaggs, the members of Blue Highway - Tim Stafford (guitar, vocals), Wayne Taylor (lead vocals, bass), Shawn Lane (tenor vocals, guitar, mandolin, fiddle), Rob Ickes (Dobro, Scheerhorn acoustic slide guitar), and Jason Burleson (banjo, guitar, mandolin, bass vocals) - refuse to rest on their past accomplishments. Instead, they forge forward, carefully balancing tradition with innovation, continually contributing to the depth and breadth of a flowing bluegrass river. Skaggs himself provided the accolade, "Blue Highway is writing their own history in bluegrass: fresh, but as old as the hills."

The band's eighth album, Through The Window Of A Train was self-produced by the band and recorded at Maggard Sound Studios in Big Stone Gap, Virginia, and features 12 songs, all written or co-written by Blue Highway's five accomplished songwriters - composers whose songs have been recorded by bluegrass staples Ronnie Bowman, Mountain Heart, the aforementioned Skaggs, and others. The recording showcases Blue Highway at their songwriting, instrumental, and vocal peak. With a nod to family, tradition and travel on the album's title track, the account of a fading cowboy on "My Ropin' Days Are Done," the characterizations of wars past and current on "Homeless Man" and "Two Soldiers," and through the virtuosic picking on the instrumental "The North Cove," Blue Highway simultaneously deliver the past, present, and future of bluegrass.
