Common Ground is a seasoned, energetic, Traditional Acoustic Music band from East-central Indiana. They blend smooth vocal harmonies, the natural acoustic sounds of handmade instruments, playful banter and thoughtful insight into a lively, up-beat performance. Playing and singing music is a passion for these men, and they experience great solace and excitement as they resurrect songs of old and develop new songs and sounds.
Common Ground works very hard to be true to the music of the past—playing Gospel, Bluegrass, Country, and Folk songs in the ways that have delighted generations. Many of the songs are old favorites which transport listeners back in time and rekindle fond memories.
Common Ground also performs songs that are less familiar, more contemporary, or Original Songs. They also love to perform familiar songs in a new style— they transform old-time Rock and Roll, Pop, Country Western or Church Hymns to acoustic styles—all the while retaining the original charm and message.
