RON STEWART,
is fast becoming a bluegrass legend in his own right, is probably the
most respected multi-instrumentalist in bluegrass today. He grew
up playing with his family band in Paoli, Indiana, and had already been
invited to play fiddle on a live album with his legendary hero, Lester
Flatt, by the time he was nine years old. He is the five-string banjo
player extraordinaire for the Dan Tyminski Band, and also
performs on lead guitar and fiddle onstage. His gutsy and soulful
fiddle playing has earned him the Indiana State Fiddle Championship
twice, and the IBMA Fiddle Player of the Year in 2000, as well.
He is from Paoli, Indiana and maintains a blistering
schedule as a recording session player in addition to his steady gig
with The Dan Tyminski Band.
His solo CD on Rounder, Time Stands Still ,
features Ron's earthy vocals and fiery instrumental drive on banjo,
fiddle, and guitar (as well as mandolin and bass on one of his original
cuts, 'Riding the Saranac'.) Ron hand picked some of his most
talented favorites to appear as guest artists on the project, and wrote
half the material himself. Don't miss this one, folks!
