Since forming nearly 50 years ago, The Seldom Scene has brought both freewheeling joy and immaculate musicianship to their inventive take on bluegrass, offering up spirited interpretations of songs from multiple genres: country, rock, and pop with ease and deep familiarity. On their latest recording, Changes, the band sharpens their focus to a highly specific body of work – songs first recorded in the 1960s and early ’70s – rooted in the archetypal storytelling of classic singer-songwriters. In taking on the music of iconic artists like Bob Dylan and Townes Van Zandt, The Seldom Scene perform a sort of subtle magic: transforming the most stripped-bare songs into harmony-rich and elaborately arranged compositions, while wholly sustaining the charmed simplicity of each piece.

Other highlights from this project they’ve taken on the road include banjo-driven reimagining of “Everybody’s Talkin,’” Gordon Lightfoot’s “Steel Rail Blues,” John Prine’s “A Good Time,” and James Taylor’s “Sweet Baby James.” With every song, the band graces the arrangements with breathtaking instrumental interplay and heavenly three-part harmonies. American Songwriter notes “The easy going vocals and harmonies are as sumptuous and beautifully-realized as the playing that never substitutes speed for soul.”
