BIOGRAPHY

Legend Ricky Skaggs continues to do his part to lead the roots revival. With 12 consecutive Grammy-nominated classics behind him, the diverse and masterful tones made by the gifted Skaggs come from a life dedicated to playing music. Marking Ricky’s 50th year in music was the release of Country Hits Bluegrass Style (2011), a compilation of many of Skaggs’ #1 country hits and fan favorites played in a bluegrass style. Long awaited by country and bluegrass fans alike, Music To My Ears (2012) was an exciting new offering by Skaggs. Fresh, new bluegrass tunes co-written by Skaggs along with a brand new instrumental mark this CD in distinction among all others, while new takes on older bluegrass standards add to its charm. The album features a duet with  Skaggs and Barry Gibb (of Bee Gees fame) on deeply moving “Soldier’s Son,” along with new bluegrass treasure “You Can’t Hurt Ham.” Skaggs is always forging ahead with cross-cultural, genre-bending musical ideas and inspirations. In 2014, he collaborated on the album Hearts Like Ours with Sharon White. Ricky Skaggs continues to tour the country.
