This season of Old Town New Folk closes with an evening of bluegrass brilliance and pure harmony, as two of country music’s most celebrated voices share the stage.Ricky Skaggs and Sharon White are a musical partnership woven from love, legacy, and more than six decades of song. Earning 12 #1 hit singles, 15 GRAMMY® Awards, 13 IBMA Awards, nine ACM Awards, eight CMA Awards (including Entertainer of the Year), along with inductions into the Bluegrass Music and Country Music Hall of Fame, Ricky Skaggs is truly a pioneer of Bluegrass and Country music. Since his beginnings in music over 60 years ago, the Grand Ole Opry member has released more than 30 albums and performed thousands of live shows with his ace backing band, Kentucky Thunder. He started his own record label, Skaggs Family Records, in 1997, releasing 12 consecutive GRAMMY®-nominated albums and has published his autobiography, “Kentucky Traveler.”
Sharon White is a member of beloved Country-Gospel family band, The Whites, and has been making music alongside her father Buck and sister Cheryl for more than five decades. They originally began as a Bluegrass group, but the family trio became well known for their string of Country hits in the 1980s, including “Hangin’ Around,” “Give Me Back That Old Familiar Feeling,” and “Pins and Needles.” The Whites are Grand Ole Opry members and were involved in the 2001 hit movie and soundtrack, O Brother, Where Art Thou? They have gone on to win GRAMMY®, CMA and Dove Awards, among others.
Joining the evening is Mike Rogers, celebrated vocalist and founding member of the acclaimed harmony group Brothers of the Heart. Formerly the lead singer of the chart-topping band BlackHawk, Rogers brings deep roots in classic country and bluegrass, adding another layer of harmony to this unforgettable night.
