Carolina Blue is a Brevard, NC based band whose roots run deep in the tradition
of Bill Monroe and Flatt & Scruggs.

The band was formed in 2007 after the
release of the album "Nothing So Blue" by Bobby Powell and Tim Jones.
Carolina Blue won the South Carolina state bluegrass championship at RenoFest
in 2011. The band's repertoire consists of original songs; including Tim Jones'
"Spring Will Bring Flowers", which was recorded by 2014 IBMA entertainers of
the year Balsam Range, many bluegrass favorites, and gospel too, all done in the
traditional style.

Available recordings are Bobby Powell & Tim Jones "Nothing So Blue" (2007
produced by Steep Canyon Ranger Woody Platt and featuring Platt, Graham
Sharp, Mike Guggino, Shannon Whitworth, and Roy Chapman) as well as
"Carolina Blue Live at Renofest" (2011), and most recently released album "Goin' Home Today" (2016).

Band members are Bobby Powell on guitar and vocals, Tim Jones on mandolin
and vocals, Reese Combs on upright bass and vocals, Seth Rhinehart on banjo
