All Genres > Country > Bluegrass > ACOUSTIC SHADOWS OF THE BLUE & GRAY: Marching the Roads of Valor

The Acoustic Shadows of the Blue & Gray™ perform traditional music focusing primarily on the era of the American Civil War. The group has re-orchestrated many old-time favorites by breathing new life into the songs of yesteryear.

Since July 4th, 1995, the Acoustic Shadows of the Blue & Gray™ have focused on presenting America's traditional music in a way that is fresh and exhilarating. The group is accustomed to performing for audiences of all sizes-from those found in the concert hall to the intimate setting of the fireside sing-along.

The members of the Acoustic Shadows of the Blue & Gray™ are re-enactors who perform in full military dress from the era of the Civil War. The group's mission is to entertain and educate listeners with a modern interpretation of Civil War era music appropriate for...
* Festivals
* Re-enactments
* Schools
* Churches
* Private Parties & Gatherings
* Picnics
* Community Events
* Dedications

While the songs that you will hear being performed by the Acoustic Shadows of the Blue & Gray™ are the songs that were heard during the Civil War, you are not going to hear them exactly as they would have been experienced back then. As is often the case with many types of music, the interpretation of Civil War era music has often changed with the times. Because the Acoustic Shadows of the Blue & Gray™ regularly perform for many diverse audiences, the members of the band have thus strived to present the music in a manner that reflects the modern listener's sensibilities and expectations.
