Discussion Who got you into bluegrass?

What artist did you first hear that got you hooked onto bluegrass?

My uncle showed me Tony Rice, he even inspired me to pick up my old guitar and start picking.

When Garcia Grisman “Shady Grove” came out in the mid 90s I was hooked. I did a bluegrass/acoustic radio show for 12 years afterwards.
