ABOUT SAM BUSH
Sam Bush has spent more than five decades redefining bluegrass, blending its traditional roots with rock, jazz, reggae, and improvisation to help create the progressive "newgrass" movement. Raised on a Kentucky cattle farm, Bush fell in love with the mandolin after seeing Ricky Skaggs perform with Flatt & Scruggs, becoming a champion fiddler before turning down an offer to join Roy Acuff's band in pursuit of a broader musical vision. In 1971, he co-founded New Grass Revival, a groundbreaking group that challenged bluegrass conventions and became one of the genre's most influential bands.
After 18 years with New Grass Revival, Bush launched a solo career while continuing to collaborate with artists including Emmylou Harris, Lyle Lovett, and Béla Fleck. A four-time IBMA Mandolin Player of the Year and recipient of the Americana Music Association's Lifetime Achievement Award for Instrumentalist, Bush has inspired generations of musicians and remains a beloved fixture on the festival circuit. Revered as the "King of Telluride," he continues to embody the adventurous spirit that has made him one of bluegrass music's most enduring innovators.
