They also won the Gospel Recorded Performance of the Year award for “Singing As We Rise.” Help My Brother, their tenth album, won the prestigious 2011 IBMA Album of the Year Award.Theye were named the 2011 IBMA Vocal Group of the Year, the first time a brother duet has won this award. Help My Brother held the #1 position on the Bluegrass Unlimited Album chart for 8 months. It definitely had staying power, with songs charting on the BU Top 30 more than a year after its release. These awards followed on the success of Ring the Bell. The title cut of that album won the 2010 IBMA Song and Gospel Recorded Performance of the Year. gibsonbrothers.com
w/Trinity River Band (BLUEGRASS) Made up of Dad Michael, Mom Lisa, Daughter Sarah, Son Joshua, and Daughter Brianna, Trinity River began playing as a group in local churches and fairs four years ago, after the kids all received instruments as gifts within a short time period. Lisa originally started on mandolin, Sarah on guitar and Joshua on the banjo, but as things progressed, Lisa moved to upright bass and Sarah took over the mandolin. Josh still plays the fire out of the banjo, but has added the Dobro and also fills in on the upright from time to time. Dad, who has been performing both for fun and professionally for nearly 40 years, handles the guitar. Youngest daughter Brianna has started to play the fiddle and is singing with the family more and more. Between Dad, Josh and Sarah, we write a bunch of original tunes, but we still give plenty of "pickin' time" to traditional favorites as well. reverbnation.com/trinityriver
