Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band is an American roots band formed in West Virginia, with an authentic mountain sound that has earned them a reputation as "mainstream bluegrass at its best" (Bluegrass Unlimited Magazine).

Led by vocalist and bassist Libby Files, Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band pays homage to a simpler time when front porch picking and gospel-tinged harmonies were the heart of rural community gatherings. Their repertoire includes both original compositions and classic bluegrass favorites, delivering a diverse range of songs that evoke the spirit of the Appalachian Mountains.

After reaching No. 1 in 2020 with "A Miner's Life," Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band has continued to score hits on roots music and bluegrass charts with heartfelt songs and blue-collar appeal. Their latest single, a cover of Dillards’ "There is a Time," spent more than a year at No. 1 and was the top RMR bluegrass song of 2023. The song also spent two weeks in Cashbox Magazine’s top ten. Fueled by the success of its singles, the album A Miner’s Life spent a remarkable four weeks at No. 1 on RMR’s album charts. Several earlier releases, penned by guitarist Kenton "Red" Catlett, reached No. 1 on the RMR charts thanks to a resurgence in radio airplay.

Known for their down-home sound and instrumental prowess honed through two decades of entertaining audiences, Stoney Creek Bluegrass Band is firmly planting its roots in the rich soil of traditional mountain bluegrass.
