🚨For the first time in nearly 50 years, Boone Creek’s legendary 1977 self-titled debut is returning! 🎻🪕 Before they were legends, Ricky Skaggs, Jerry Douglas, Wes Golding, and Terry Baucom teamed up to rewrite the rules of bluegrass. Now, their groundbreaking album is coming to streaming, CD, and its first vinyl pressing in decades. 🎧 Listen to their soul-stirring preview track “I’m Gonna Settle Down” right now, and pre-order the album ahead of its June 26 release.
Jerry Douglas - King of the Dobro- 16 Grammys, 3 CMAs, 3 AMAs, a Million Stories!
16-time Grammy Winner, three-time CMA Musician of the Year award recipient, Americana Music Association Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, National Endowment for the Arts National Heritage Fellowship award winner, Artist in Residence for the Country Music Hall of Fame, Jerry Douglas, is such an underachiever!
What is a dobro? Uninformed minds wanted to know. Jerry schooled us, but as your fun favorite professor would.
Why a dobro? We got that education too. From his bluegrass-playing steelworker band on the side, father, Flatt and Scruggs obsessed little kid, to professional musician at 16, playing Avery Fischer Hall with headliner David Bromberg, to winning his first Grammy at 19, to playing with James Taylor, John Prine, Steve Goodman, Mumford & Sons, Paul Simon, Elvis Costello, Alison Krauss, to Eric Clapton. We got the skinny on all of them, plus Jerry’s chance meeting with Sir Paul, a seemingly scary Ry Cooder, recording in Abby Road, dinner with Clapton and Ron Wood, how he met his bride of 17 years, parenting 4, grandparenting 7, loving all of them, all of it, except the night of extreme excess that led to his sobriety.
Bonus, he also played us out, as only dobro master, Jerry Douglas, could. I knew when Snuffy and I spent an evening in Nashville recently with Jerry and Jill that he’d be a great guest, as with his playing, he exceeded all expectations.

Today LIVE Jerry Douglas - King of the Dobro- 16 Grammys 3 CMAs!
16-time Grammy Winner and three-time CMA Musician of the Year award recipient, Jerry Douglas, was called “Dobro’s matchless contemporary master” by The New York Times. Jerry’s also one of the nicest and funnest guys I know. To see him perform live and effortlessly cross genres from rock, jazz, blues, country, Celtic, and bluegrass is a seamless masterclass of execution and a one-of-a-kind entertainment.
One of the most innovative recording artists in music as a solo artist, Jerry’s also the band leader for The Jerry Douglas Band and his Grammy-winning bluegrass band, The Earls of Leicester, as well as a member of ensembles including Alison Krauss & Union Station, J.D. Crowe & the New South, The Country Gentlemen, Boone Creek, and Strength In Numbers.
Jerry’s graced more than 1500 albums with artists such as Garth Brooks, George Jones, Paul Simon, Little Big Town, James Taylor, Emmylou Harris, Elvis Costello, Earl Scruggs, Ray Charles, Dierks Bentley, Sierra Ferrell, Tommy Emmanuel, and many others.
In addition to touring, Jerry co-produced and performed on a series of platinum albums. He’s produced albums for Alison Krauss, The Del McCoury Band, Maura O’Connell, The Whites, Steep Canyon Rangers, John Hiatt, and, recently, Molly Tuttle. He’s co-music director of the BBC Scotland TV series Transatlantic Sessions. In 2004, Jerry was recognized by the National Endowment for the Arts with an American Heritage Fellowship, and he served as the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum’s Artist in Residence in 2008.
I’ve seen him perform live, and we’ve dined in his good company. I can’t wait to dig in and get the back story of this man whose ongoing influence on country, Americana, bluegrass, and their many related genres is immeasurable.
