ABOUT DOYLE DYKES
Although influenced by a wide variety of musical styles and musicians from the country of Chet Atkins, to the rock & roll of Duane Eddy and the Beatles, Doyle Dykes has developed a distinct, recognizable sound that amazes audiences while capturing hearts with sincerity and soul. He is considered one of the best fingerstylists today for his exceptional skill and imaginative arrangements.
Doyle’s early years as a guitarist took him around the world as he toured with The Stamps Quartet and later with Grand Ole Opry star Grandpa Jones. Doyle has since returned to the Grand Ole Opry for numerous performances and many appearances live on national television.
ABOUT RUTH WYAND
Demonstrating guitar virtuosity with powerful fingerpicking, bottleneck slide, and a warm alto voice, Ruth presents a mix of poignant originals and well-crafted arrangements of classics from Doc Watson, Etta Baker, Miles Davis, Leo Kottke to Thelonious Monk.
An authentic performer, songwriter, guitarist, and storyteller, her songwriting is a melting pot of styles with lyrics that are timeless, relatable, and sometimes witty, but always human and genuine.
A soulful and engaging storyteller, she'll tell you all about her sometimes hilarious, sometimes scary tales of life on the road. She says, "After 100 years of playing everywhere from biker bars, nudist colonies, and haunted theaters in New Zealand, there’s not much I haven't seen.”
