IIIrd Tyme Out

Success for IIIrd Tyme Out was nearly an overnight occurrence for this group following its formation in 1991. They have carried on since then as one of the most beloved and best-selling acts in the genre. To this day, founding member Russell Moore (guitar), along with Steve Dilling (banjo), Justen Haynes (fiddle), Wayne Benson (mandolin), Edgar Loudermilk (bass) and their excellent sound technician, Donnie Carver, are creating a new tradition in modern bluegrass music.
As the saying goes, “The proof is in the pudding,” and there is no greater proof of the band’s status as one of the world’s top bluegrass groups than its seven consecutive IBMA (International Bluegrass Music Association) awards for ‘Vocal Group of the Year’ and Russell Moore’s two IBMA ‘Male Vocalist of the Year’ trophies. All in all, IIIrd Tyme Out has garnered over 50 industry awards, the last two being ‘Bluegrass Band of the Year’ and ‘Male Vocalist of the Year’ (Russell Moore), both from the Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music in America (SPBGMA). As a band, their vocals define them, and their a cappella renditions of many songs can barely be matched. Their superb instrumentation provides a strong lead and supportive contrast to the rich vocal blends. Stir all of this together, throw in a heavy touring schedule, including many performances on the Grand Ole Opry and other GAC and RFD channel programs, over fourteen recordings to date, and an unending desire to present their fans with the best music they can, and you’ve got something quite tasty for the ears.
But where did the name IIIrd Tyme Out originate? The name winkingly references that this was the third time out for founding member Moore, and consequently the third professional bluegrass band association for him. No doubt, the third time proved to be a charm. From 1995 through 2001, IIIrd Tyme Out released a string of acclaimed albums for Rounder Records, that represent the band’s finest efforts to date. Available in January, 2008, Footprints: A IIIrd Tyme Out Collection documents the soaring heights the band reached in the Rounder years, with the added bonus of two newly-recorded performances. Songs like “John and Mary,” “Giving My Soul Back To Him,” and their crowd-pleasing a capella take on “Only You” remain staples of their repertoire to this day, and number among the very best bluegrass performances of theirs or any other era.
Writes bluegrass musician, songwriter, and journalist Chris Stuart in his perceptive liner note for Footprints, ““IIIrd Tyme Out has their own brand of bluegrass: unmatched quartets and trios, masterful lead singing, dead-on rhythm, tasteful fills, lyrical solos, and great songs. From stage left to right they are a complete band – perhaps the most complete band of the past two decades.”
