David Grier

David Grier's bluegrass roots run deep. When he was just four years old his father, renowned bluegrass musician Lamar Grier, got a job playing banjo with Bill Monroe and the family moved to Nashville. David's pre-school education came from hanging around backstage at the Grand Ole Opry, attending bluegrass concerts and festivals, and riding down the road with the Blue Grass Boys on Bill Monroe's bus. He is now the most award-winning flatpicker in recent memory, mentioned in the same company with such giants as Tony Rice, Doc Watson and Norman Blake.
For the past several years, he has been voted by the members of the International Bluegrass Music Association as Best Guitar Player of the Year, has appeared on two Grammy- winning recordings, is included in the book, 1,000 Great Guitarists, and his Lone Soldier project is listed as Acoustic Guitar Magazine's 100 Essential Acoustic Guitar Recordings of all Time.
His most recent solo release is I've Got the House to Myself. In addition to touring solo, David also appears as the guitarist for Psychograss, which is currently celebrating a critically acclaimed new album, "Now Hear This".
