Carson Peters and Iron Mountain have quickly become one of the hottest bands in the business, having made numerous trips to the Grand Ole Opry, multiple international appearances, and with countless songs on the bluegrass and bluegrass gospel charts. Their traditional style and a cappella arrangements are a refreshing reminder that the bluegrass of old is alive and well.

The band is made up of Carson Peters (22), from Piney Flats, TN, James McDowell (30), from Hendersonville, NC, Taylor Parks (22), from Bloxom, VA, Henry Burgess (19), from Edmond, OK, and Jake Goforth (19), from Troy, NC. Carson and the band signed with Billy Blue Records in 2023 and are gearing up for the release of their second album under the esteemed bluegrass label.
