"(McCoury's) Bluegrass virtuosity remains as stunning as ever."-People Magazine
Called "a national treasure" by the Washington Post, Del McCoury is at the height of his game and has become a major bridge in bringing bluegrass to a wider audience. At McCoury’s shows, college students cheer alongside the fans that have been following McCoury’s music since his very first album. McCoury—along with his band—has now won more International Bluegrass Music Association awards than any other artist, been nominated for three Grammys, and has even seen his first video firmly planted on CMT’s top ten list. He joined the Grand Ole Opry in 2003 and now divides his time between traditional bluegrass festivals and jam gatherings, recently playing with such bands as Phish, Leftover Salmon, and Yonder Mountain String Band. Lately his albums have had a habit of topping the bluegrass charts. With Ronnie McCoury playing mandolin, Rob McCoury on banjo, Mike Bub plucking bass, and Jason Carter on the fiddle, the virtuoso members of Del's band are recognized as being among the best pickers in the business. His latest release, The Company We Keep, is packed with tightly-written hardcore bluegrass songs from some of Nashville’s most trusted songwriters.
