FolkPsalm has surprised and delighted audiences with their excursions into the Book of Psalms with Bluegrass and Americana music since 2003, led by lifelong bluegrass musician Charles Pettee, (founding member Flying Fish recording artist The Shady Grove Band). Performing throughout the Southeast, including NC’s MerleFest, several Wild Goose Festivals, as well as countless communities of faith, FolkPsalm holds the distinction of being the only bluegrass-based ensemble ever to perform at Duke’s famous Duke Chapel. “A Dove on Distant Oaks: Psalms for the Journey” is the fourth and latest album from the group, continuing their quest to share the good news of God’s never-ending love, offering sustenance for the never-ending quest for justice, through song, dance, and prayer, as modeled by these sacred songs and prayers.
