From Bill Monroe’s Blue Grass Boys to the Foggy Mountain Boys and Flatt & Scruggs (the most successful instrumental duo in bluegrass history) banjo legend Earl Scruggs is one of the most important figures in American music. Revered by generations of bluegrass pickers, his ingenuity, vitality and trademark three-finger picking style make for magical and unforgettable listening.
North Carolina’s own Tony Award-winning Red Clay Ramblers are among the very best of the string-band revival groups, rooted in old-time mountain music as well as bluegrass, country, rock New Orleans jazz, gospel and the American musical.
