With captivating stories and an award winning blend of folk, rock, blues, and Appalachian roots music, Graveyard Pete & The New Appalachian Sound is reshaping central Ohio's music culture one bar at a time.
The pieces of melody and poetry that came to Aaron DeYarmon while he worked the midnight shift on long hauls took shape when he began playing his songs live with fellow driver, Michael Ulery.
As they honed their sound at every coffee shop and bar that would take a chance on Aaron's unique folk-rock tunes, a growing network of collaborators added new flavors to the evolving songs -- upright bass, percussion, banjo, mandolin, and, most importantly, the sweet soulful vocal harmonies of Carlie Quillin.
With the addition of Will Christoffersen on electric lead and Lynde Wangler on violin, the band's sound took its final form on the stages of central Ohio as a high energy brand of folk-rock with deep roots in the Appalachian music that formed the core of the original duo.
The band's studio releases have been nationally recognized by the International Singer-Songwriters Association, the World Songwriting Awards, the Josie Awards, and the Who's Hoo Country Music Awards.
“Kentucky Hillsong” was recorded and mixed at the legendary Musicol Recording Studios in Columbus, Ohio, and mastered at 2Track Mastering.
