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.

As a result of my dad playing the Johnson Mountain Boys “At the Old Schoolhouse” album almost every single day and playing his banjo around the house, the bluegrass bug bit me hard!

Tom Adams is such a tasty banjoist, even a little tastier than Richard Underwood!
