About | In their version of the 1959 Stanley Brothers‘ classic, up-tempo bluegrass hymn, Zoe & Cloyd say “That Home Far Away”—despite its age—has a message that speaks to modern times. “This song speaks to hope for the future, which we could all use right now, while offering up a sense of humility. Only in acknowledging our own transgressions can we seek literal or figurative redemption.”
