Bill Monroe on Nostr: Although Bill Monroe holds the title of Father of Bluegrass, without Earl Scruggs ...

Although Bill Monroe holds the title of Father of Bluegrass, without Earl Scruggs bluegrass would have been a different animal altogether. Earl Scruggs' innovative three-finger banjo playing, which became known as "Scruggs Style," is one of the defining elements of Bluegrass music, along side Bill's mandolin playing the High Lonesome vocal style. After his stint with the Bluegrass Boys he went on to have a long and fruitful musical career with Flatt & Scruggs. Here is Flatt & Scruggs playing the classic Ruben on the Grand Ole Opry Show.

In a previous stage in life I spent a lot of time making art. I was also very into bluegrass music (couldn't you tell?) so I did a series of woodcuts of some of my favorite musicians. Here is bluegrass legend, who is still making music after all these years, Del McCoury. If anyone wants to trade a print for some sats DM me.
