Monroe Crossing plays classic bluegrass music plus Gospel tunes, original songs & unique arrangements of songs from other styles of music. In 2007, the band received the prestigious invitation to be a showcase band at the International Bluegrass Music Association’s convention. The group has also been named to the Minnesota Music Hall of Fame. The band has recorded nine CDs.
