Honoring The Fathers Of Bluegrass: Tribute To 1946 & 1947
Release Date: Apr 01, 2008
Cross-pollination has been a mainstay throughout Ricky’s career. From his weekly collaborations with various artists as host of The Nashville Network’s “Monday Night Concerts” in the 90s to his most recent pairing with renowned pianist and songwriter Bruce Hornsby.
Backed by Kentucky Thunder and a few special guests, Ricky Skaggs and Bruce Hornsby draw from deep roots in mountain music – adding piano and Hornsby’s inimitable songwriting to the core bluegrass lineup of mandolin, guitar, bass, fiddle and banjo.
Ricky Skaggs has often said that he is “just trying to make a living” playing the music he loves, but it’s clear that his passion for bluegrass puts him in the position to bring this lively, distinctively American form of music out of isolation and into the ears and hearts of those across the country and around the world.
