About the Album
Bluegrass Holy Land
Release Date: March 1, 2024
The Relentless Bluegrass of Marty Falle: Horse racing has the Triple Crown, and baseball has its prestigious “batting the cycle,” but the music industry has yet to coin a phrase that captures the improbability of releasing three original chart-topping albums in a single year. If they did, Marty Falle, Bluegrass singer/ songwriter would wear the badge of honor for 2023 for "Kentucky Bluestar", "My Farm, My Bluegrass" and "Born Again Bluegrass". In 2024, Falle is not breaking stride, and has created 15 new original songs, a project called "Bluegrass Holy Land", released on March 1, 2024.
"Bluegrass Holy Land" is Falle's most unique Bluegrass album to date. The album begins with the emphatic "Holy Ghost Fire" and flows into Appalachia storyland with "Grampa's Jukebox". The album is greatly enhanced with Bluegrass vocal phenom, Caroline Owens. "Never Loved Like This" features a duet with Falle and Owens, followed by Owens soaring soprano on "Cherokee Goddess". Owens joins Falle one more time on the the faith based song "Tiny Angels".
Additional Bluegrass spiritual works like "God Found A Woman" and "Have You Heard The Good Word" augment this powerful musical presentation. In addition, the album delivers bow scorching barn burners - "Rock-Ola Redemption", "Dance in the Hog Trough" and "Irish Wake".
