Ricky Skaggs & Kentucky Thunder
May 21, 2023 @ 7:30 PM - 11:00 PM
15-time Grammy Award Winner, Ricky Skaggs’ career is easily among the most significant in recent country music history. At age five, Skaggs picked up the mandolin and within a few years he emerged as a prominent name in the country scene. Over the course of his 50-year career, Skaggs has written and recorded with progressive bluegrass acts such as J.D. Crowe & The New South and Country Gentlemen.
In the past decade, he has been honored with inductions into the Gospel Music Association’s Gospel Music Hall of Fame and the Musicians Hall of Fame. In 2018, a landmark year, Skaggs was also awarded membership into the National Fiddler Hall of Fame, the IBMA Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame and country music’s greatest honor, the Country Music Hall of Fame. Most recently, he was awarded the prestigious National Medal of Arts in 2020 for his contributions to the American music industry.
