Rodney Dillard is a founder, lead singer, composer, and last surviving member of The Dillards, one of the most transformative musical groups to come out of the 1960s and 70s.Hailing from Salem, Missouri, The Dillards (Rodney Dillard, Doug Dillard, Mitch Jayne, and Dean Webb) are known for helping to bring two brand new music genres to mainstream America: Bluegrass (through their unforgettable appearances as “The Darlings” on The Andy Griffith Show) and Country Rock (through iconic albums such as “Wheatstraw Suite,” “Copperfields,” and Rodney’s in-studio and onstage genre-defying innovations).

The Dillards’ appearances as “The Darling Family” (with Denver Pyle playing their father and Maggie Peterson playing their sister “Charlene”) are constantly among the highest rated Andy Griffith episodes in reruns today, more than 50 years later.

Rodney is one of the only currently active artists to be featured in three major Halls of Fame at the same time - the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame, the Bill Monroe Hall of Fame and Bluegrass Music, and the Country Music Hall of Fame (via special focused exhibit).

Rodney and The Dillards influenced major artists such as Elton John, Don Henley, John Paul Jones, Linda Ronstadt, John McEuen, Steve Martin, The Byrds, Buffalo Springfield, and Sam Bush. Their most beloved songs include “Dooley,” “Old Home Place,” and “There is a Time.”

The Dillards’ latest album is called “Songs That Made Charlene Cry” - featuring all the famous funny song titles that were never real songs until now (songs like “Never Hit Your Grandma With a Great Big Stick” and “Will You Love Me When I’m Old and Ugly”).
