#EntertainmentNews: Ralph Stanley’s New Album Soon Releasing with High Hopes


The bluegrass legend, Ralph Stanley, is set to release a new collection of exclusive songs. According to the news announced by Nashville's Rebel Records, this new album which will be titled "A Mother's Prayer," is expected to be released at the 19th of April. This album would also be a cause of celebration as the artist will have spent the 40th year with the same label, Rebel Records.

Considering this is the best work of the artist of Appalachian music so far, Stanley, 84, will be attracting the church music of his youth. Few of the songs on the album will be a cappella, whereas some are in collaboration with the Grammy-winning artist, Clinch Mountain Boys, and others as well.
Stanley is still remembered for his achievement for his music in the Coen Brothers' film "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" back in 2000. The song titled "Oh, Death" was the official soundtrack of the film and gathered a couple of worthy Grammy awards as well.
