She has performed with Ashley McBryde and alongside Ricky Skaggs on the Grand Ole Opry with bluegrass supergroup, Sister Sadie, as well as recording with Vince Gill.

She has received numerous awards and nominations, including a 2023 nomination for IBMA Female Vocalist of the Year. She has also been recognized as a member of bluegrass’ preeminent all-female band, Sister Sadie, with a 2021 win for IBMA Vocal Group of the Year and 2023 IBMA nominations for Vocal Group of the Year and Song of the Year (“Diane”).

Mandolin player C.J. Lewandowski is the founder of bluegrass group the Po' Ramblin' Boys. The band won the International Bluegrass Music Association's 2018 New Artist of the Year and was nominated for the Best Bluegrass Album Grammy for 2019's Toil, Tears & Trouble.
Bluegrass artist Rebekah Long is no stranger to Bluegrass music as she spent time touring with Little Roy Lewis and Valerie Smith & Liberty Pike. Rebekah is also the older twin of Bluegrass entertainer Lizzy Long. "I was born first, I'm the oldest twin. I always tell it 'It's God's way of flattering me with a copy of myself!'" laughs Rebekah. Long was raised on a farm in Lincolnton, Georgia. At an early age she learned the value of hard work. On the flip side she also learned the value of good music. She has endured so much in her life, but with this endurance comes strength. She is backed by a life long love for Bluegrass, that was installed in her at an early age. It's the respect, honor and integrity of Bluegrass that she takes with her as she performs.
