Harold Bradley, a 2006 inductee into the prestigious Country Music Hall of Fame is widely recognized as "the most recorded guitarist in history", having appeared in hundreds of hit recordings over a career spanning more than 50 years. His signature "tic-tac" style of bass playing was an innovation.

Harold can be heard on such legendary recordings as "Crying" (Roy Orbison), "Make The World Go Away" (Eddie Arnold), "King of the Road" (Roger Miller) and "Crazy" (Patsy Cline). Other acts he has recorded with include Elvis Presley, Loretta Lynn and Willie Nelson.

Nashville, TN (December 19, 2011)  --  For the past two years we have shared the road and the studio with a great guitarist and friend, Jake Stargel. After thousands of road miles and many great memories, ole “Sarge” (as we call him) has decided to pursue a different musical path. We understand and wish him all the best and remain friends.

Today, we are thrilled to announce that Seth Taylor, one of the most talented young “musicians” alive has officially joined Mountain Heart as our lead guitarist. We refer to Seth as “musician” rather than “guitarist” because he can play almost every instrument in the band, including steel and electric guitar and play it masterfully! Seth will allow us to stretch even farther musically and explore more ground in the coming years.

Famed Alt-Acoustic group along with famous friends will pay respect to living legend's new tribute album and celebrate his 70th Birthday

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The multi-faceted and award-winning group Mountain Heart are gearing up to dedicate the December edition of their monthly radio program, That Just Happened, to the legendary singer/songwriter Guy Clark.

Clark will also be in the studio for the full hour to reflect upon his celebrated career, the 30-track tribute album and his thoughts on recently turning 70.
