Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder

with Special Guest Haley Dykes
7:30p.m. Saturday, April 24, 2010

2010 marks Ricky Skaggs' 39th year as a professional musician, and this 14-time Grammy Award winner continues to do his part to lead the recent roots revival in music. Known affectionately today as bluegrass music's official ambassador, Ricky has brought the genre to greater levels of popularity in the past few years than the father of bluegrass music, the legendary Bill Monroe, could ever have imagined. With eight consecutive Grammy-nominated classics behind him, all from his own Skaggs Family Records label, bluegrass music is undoubtedly in good hands, with the masterful Skaggs at the helm.

Haley Dykes is at the leading edge of Newgrass music. It is a fresh sound built on the foundation of bluegrass with a rich mix of mandolin, guitar, fiddle and banjo. This promises to be an evening of excellent music.
