Event Details
Darin and Brooke Aldridge, the highly acclaimed Bluegrass and Americana duo, are back with This Life We're Livin,' their ninth recorded project together and first release on Billy Blue Records and celebrates the space the husband-and-wife team now occupies - the top of bluegrass music.
Darin and Brooke continue to ascend to new heights in the industry while maintaining their easy-going, down-to-earth connection with audiences everywhere. Brooke is a four-time consecutive winner and reigning Female Vocalist of the Year for the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA). She was nominated for a fifth time in 2021 while Darin is a former IBMA Mentor of the Year and a truly gifted singer and multi-instrumentalist. Darin and Brooke have also been recognized with the IBMA's nomination for 2021 Vocal Group of the Year. They have had multiple nominations over the years from the IBMA, the Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music of America (SPBGMA), and the Inspirational Country Music Association. On April 18, 2023, they were named "Bluegrass Artists of the Year" at the Absolutely Gospel Music Awards.
They have enjoyed top spots on the Billboard, SiriusXM, Bluegrass Today, Bluegrass Unlimited, Americana/Roots, and Gospel charts. Their music videos have been featured on Country Music Television (CMT), CMT Edge, Great American Country (GAC), Bluegrass Ridge TV, and The Bluegrass Situation. Their television appearances include PBS' Mountain Stage, Songs of the Mountain and Music City Roots; RFD-TV's Larry's Country Diner, Country's Family Reunion, and The Woodsongs Old Time Radio Hour; Great American Gospel, The Bluegrass Road, and Blue Highways TV. They have graced the Opry stage more than 55 times.
A career highlight from the new album is "He's Getting Me Ready," a gospel rouser featuring Country Music Hall of Fame members The Oak Ridge Boys. It spent an incredible, record setting 5 month atop the Bluegrass/Gospel Chart.
In following the path of their dreams, Brooke once noted, "We want our music to lift people up." "It was an early goal of ours to put a positive message out there," adds Darin, "and we decided a long, long time ago that we were going to be us, no matter what."
