Ace Western swing\/country group The Time Jumpers, which includes Vince Gill and a member of Riders in the Sky, has signed with Rounder Records. A studio album is due Sept. 11.<\/h1>\n
\n

Formed in 1998 by a group of Nashville’s recording studio elite, the band began just as a jam session for the musicians. Soon they played a regular slot at the Station Inn every Monday night.<\/p>\n

The Time Jumpers Kenny Sears said, “We are so excited to be signing with Rounder Records. We have all been fans of this label for a long time. The fact that they are excited about our project makes us twice as excited: lots of excitement.”<\/p>\n

“We’re very proud of this album; it’s the first time we’ve been able to record our own songs in a studio setting. We all look forward to our new relationship with Rounder Records,” he said.<\/p>\n

The group’s make-up has changed over the years. The current line-up is: Dennis Crouch – upright bass, Larry Franklin – fiddle, Paul Franklin – steel guitar, Vince Gill – vocals, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, “Ranger Doug” Green – vocals, archtop guitar, Dawn Sears – vocals, Kenny Sears – vocal, fiddle, Joe Spivey – fiddle, vocals, Andy Reiss – electric guitar, Jeff Taylor – accordion, piano and Billy Thomas – drums, vocals.<\/p>\n

In 2007, the group recorded a live album, “Jumpin’ Time,” that was nominated for two Grammy awards.<\/p>\n

The band continues to play every week, but has recently moved venues to 3rd and Lindsley since they were drawing crowds too large for the Station Inn’s capacity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
