As the early years of bluegrass recede with the passing of time, savvy artists are learning to look later in the genre’s history for neglected classics that deserve a fresh new look. Case in point: Mountain Home Music Company’s Jaelee Roberts.

Mountain Home Music Company congratulates Jaelee Roberts, who was named Female Vocalist of the Year at last night’s International Bluegrass Music Association Awards. From her Grand Ole Opry solo debut last fall through this winter’s release of No Fear, the blockbuster album from Sister Sadie that features a half-dozen of her lead vocals, it’s been a busy stretch for Roberts.

Following the radio success of last summer’s country-flavored single, “Think Again,” and its CMT-featured video, Mountain Home Music Company recording artist Jaelee Roberts returns to kick off the new year with a straightforward, energetic bluegrass song, “You Can’t Stop Me From Staying," first premiered by Wide Open Country.  

Following the racing, contemporary feel of her debut single, “Something You Didn’t Count On,” Mountain Home Music Company’s Jaelee Roberts returns with a thoroughly traditional-sounding gospel entry, “Still Waters.” The single, produced by Tim Surrett of the award-winning Balsam Range, offers ample evidence of the young singer’s stylistic and expressive range.
