Description

The Osborne Brothers, Sonny Osborne (b. October 29, 1937) and Bobby Osborne (b. December 9, 1931), were an influential and popular bluegrass act during the 1960s and 1970s. They are probably best known for their #33 1968 country hit song, "Rocky Top", written by Felice and Boudleaux Bryant and named after a mountain in Tennessee
.
Although the Osbornes were born in Hyden, Kentucky, they grew up near Dayton, Ohio and had their first experiences as entertainers in southwestern Ohio. When Bobby was drafted into the military, Sonny went to work with the "Father of Bluegrass Music" Bill Monroe in 1952. Upon the return of Bobby from service in 1953, the Osbornes teamed up with Jimmy Martin performing at radio stations WROL in Knoxville, Tennessee and WJR in Detroit, Michigan. At their only session together the Osbornes and Martin recorded six songs for RCA Victor on November 16, 1954. Soon, the Osbornes left Martin and moved to Wheeling, West Virginia in the late 1955 where they performed on WWVA Jamboree until Christmas together with Charlie Bailey. They returned to Dayton in early 1956 playing the local clubs together with guitarist Enos Johnson. When Johnson left, the Osbornes added guitarist Red Allen and fiddler Art Stamper to form a new group.
The Osborne Brothers and Red Allen (under the pseudonym Stanley Alpine) recorded for Gateway Records in February or March 1956 cutting eight instrumentals. In the spring 1956, a local disc jockey, Tommy Sutton, helped the Osborne Brothers to get a recording contract with MGM Records The new group, who consisted of the Osbornes on banjo and mandolin, Allen on guitar, Ernie Newton on bass, Tommy Jackson and Art Stamper on fiddles, made their MGM recording debut on July 1, 1956. Their first released 45 RPM single for MGM containing "Ruby Are You Mad" became a huge success and ultimately led to the Osbornes being signed on as regular members of the WWVA Jamboree in October 1956. The "Jamboree version" of the group comprised Ricky Russell on dobro, Johnny Dacus on fiddle and Ray Anderson on bass. "Ruby Are You Mad" marks the first time twin banjos were used on a bluegrass recording. On October 17, 1957, at their third session for MGM, the Osbornes, always experimenting with their sound, added a dobro and drums, also for the first time on a bluegrass recording. In April 1958, Red Allen, who was the last musician to receive billing next to the Osborne Brothers, left the group.
Upon their breakout into the bluegrass scene, the Osborne Brothers quickly became noted for their virtuosic instrumentation and tight, melodic vocal harmonies. Their first country chart appearance was "Once More", a 1958 trio with Red Allen, with a then-novel inverted stacked harmony: Bobby singing the lead line highest, then Sonny singing baritone, and finally the third singer (in this case Red Allen) singing the tenor as the lowest part. This placed Bobby's distinctive voice as the lead, and made the third voice a somewhat interchangeable part. As a result, the brothers could hire a series of guitarist/singers without changing their overall sound. This "high lead" vocal trio became their signature sound, used to great effect in the country market, with songs like "Blame Me", "Sweethearts Again", and a remake of the Carter Family's "Fair and Tender Ladies". During the 1960s, the brothers caused some controversy among Bluegrass music purists for their incorporation of electronic and percussion instruments in their live acts and studio works.
In 1960, the Osborne Brothers became the first bluegrass group to perform on a college campus at Antioch College. Three years later, in 1963, they switched to Decca Records, Their tremendous hit "Rocky Top" recorded in November 1967 and released on December 26, sold 85,000 copies within two weeks. On August 8, 1964, the Osborne Brothers were inducted as members of the Grand Ole Opry. In 1973, the Osborne Brothers performed at the White House as the first bluegrass group ever.
The Osborne Brothers have the distinction of having recorded two songs that would go on to be officially voted as "state songs." The first, "Rocky Top," was named a Tennessee state song in 1982. The other, "Kentucky," was named a state song for the brothers' home state of Kentucky.
In 1994, The Osborne Brothers were inducted into the International Bluegrass Music Association's Hall of Honor. The induction is considered bluegrass music's highest honor.
