Drifter is a 2016 album released by Volume Five on Mountain Fever Records (MFR 160624). The Virginia-based quintet—Glen Harrell (fiddle, lead vocals), Harry Clark (mandolin, vocals), Patton Wages (banjo, vocals), Colby Laney (guitar, vocals), and Chris Williamson (bass, vocals)—delivers a hard-driving traditional bluegrass program produced by Aaron Ramsey and Jeff Partin (the band's former dobro player), with Partin also contributing as a session guest. Volume Five had built a following on the festival circuit with their tight ensemble sound and Harrell's expressive lead singing, and Drifter continued the upward trajectory that brought them multiple IBMA nominations. Note: "Geoff Sanders" appears in the catalog personnel but is not documented in any available source for this recording.
