Ron Block has spent 15 years as part of Alison Krauss & Union Station and has recorded with country stars such as Vince Gill, Dolly Parton, Clint Black and Brad Paisley. Doorway, his second solo project, includes bluegrass, folk, country and rock elements in well-crafted songs driven by an underlying message of relying on God in faith.

My favorite song is probably "Above the Line:"

Heaven's Father, eternal Flame / Fulfill Your Word in Jesus' name / I'm reaching upward to the realms unseen / To hold your Word in defiant belief // If we live above the live / faith is resting in the Father's time / If we look beyond the lies / Faith is seeing with the Father's eyes

Doorway will appeal to anyone who enjoys folksy Americana-flavored music featuring impeccable musicianship including guests such as Alison Krauss and Andy Hubbard (Little Big Town).
