Country singer and fiddler Alison Krauss once said regarding the bluegrass genre, “You can’t help responding to its honesty. It’s music that finds its way deep into your soul.”
Bluegrass is indeed a soulful genre, and it’s built on genuine grounds. One reason the genre has remained one of the most authentic musical stylings over its 80 years in the spotlight is its tradition of promoting family bands. It’s hard to develop a big head and stray into lesser authentic territories when Mom and Dad or your siblings are around to keep you centered.
