About the Artist

Jerry Douglas is hailed as the preeminent contemporary master of the dobro, an instrument he embraced as a teenager to forge a distinctive voice in American music. His virtuosic skill and passionate delivery have earned him twelve Grammy Awards and accolades from luminaries like John Fogerty. Known for seamlessly blending bluegrass with elements of folk and country, Douglas's performances are celebrated for their technical brilliance and emotional depth. Fans often recount his transformative work on projects like 'O Brother, Where Art Thou?' and collaborations with artists ranging from Paul Simon to Mumford & Sons, which highlight his versatility and innovative spirit. Beyond solo ventures, his integral role in Alison Krauss + Union Station and supergroups like Strength in Numbers cements his status as a pillar of contemporary acoustic music. Occasionally, his dobro solos feel so expressive, one might swear the instrument is telling a secret it learned from a smoky mountain breeze.
