Description
From JD Crowe and the New South, to the Dan Tyminski Band to the Seldom Scene, Ron is a monster on both banjo and fiddle. Winner of IBMA fiddle player of the year and banjo player of the year, he's the rhythmic backbone that most other bluegrass players only aspire to. Ron is a thoughtful and I would say spiritual guy, who values giving more than receiving, both in life and in music. A true Renaissance man, he also builds and repairs instruments, gardens, and enjoys working his 50 acres with chainsaw and backhoe. A pleasure to talk with.
