"Among contemporary lead bluegrass singers, Edgar Loudermilk has one of the most distinctive, recognizable, and enjoyable voices in the business. His crisp baritone lead is powerful, cutting, and expressively tuneful. As with Russell Johnson and Junior Sisk, similarly strident voices, you can always find him in the mix and always want to." --Bluegrass Unlimited

LATEST RELEASE! “When I Drive through Cincinnati”
Written solely by Edgar Loudermilk, the song follows a narrator who is flooded with a wave of bittersweet memories and lingering heartbreak every time his travels take him through the Queen City. Cincinnati becomes more than just a destination; it serves as a poignant monument to a relationship that once meant everything. Through vivid lyrics and a driving bluegrass arrangement, Loudermilk perfectly captures the universal experience of how a specific place can hold a romance frozen in time.
