The Bluegrass Album Band was a bluegrass supergroup formed in 1980. Originally, the band featured <a href="spotify:artist:6gfqvidGxCJgbqSaserlkF">J.D. Crowe</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:53ODrbz9dJiAZ6ikXa8l3F">Doyle Lawson</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:6N9hyojoLChEhlsS8vYnyr">Tony Rice</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:5vOyKODAlu0wTPnN105eU9">Bobby Hicks</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:2cyuIVFHVuM00QdzCyxbUs">Todd Phillips</a>. All of the members were known as progressive bluegrass musicians, but the Bluegrass Album Band was designed to showcase the traditional side of their talents. Their first album, The Bluegrass Album, was intended as a one-shot project, but it proved so successful that the group recorded four other albums over the course of the decade. Over the years, the lineup of the Bluegrass Album Band shifted, but <a href="spotify:artist:6gfqvidGxCJgbqSaserlkF">Crowe</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:53ODrbz9dJiAZ6ikXa8l3F">Lawson</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:6N9hyojoLChEhlsS8vYnyr">Rice</a> remained its core members. The group's final album, The Bluegrass Album, Vol. 5: Sweet Sunny South, was released in 1989 and featured <a href="spotify:artist:6gfqvidGxCJgbqSaserlkF">Crowe</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:53ODrbz9dJiAZ6ikXa8l3F">Lawson</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:6N9hyojoLChEhlsS8vYnyr">Rice</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3kRUvBTtkaTGxDczyLC4fU">Vassar Clements</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4YgACLaoEjPl4kVZ5WmBN9">Jerry Douglas</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:6PyV5uHz86osOJqwSYOpx6">Mark Schatz</a>. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi
