Overview
Opener: Polecat
Having already collaborated with a virtual “who’s who” of country and bluegrass legends such as Roy Acuff, Maybelle Carter, and Merle Travis, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band’s foray into pop music put them at the early edge of a genre that has since exploded. The profoundly influential band is often cited as a catalyst for an entire movement in country pop, American roots, and country rock music.
The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band’s accolades continue to accumulate: multi-platinum and gold records, two Grammys, and multiple awards and nominations from such organizations as the Country Music Association and the International Bluegrass Music Association. Their long string of top ten hits includes “Fishin’ In The Dark” and a rendition of “Mr. Bojangles” that was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2010. The band’s groundbreaking album Will the Circle Be Unbroken was also inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame, as well as the U.S. Library of Congress.
Why We Like It: They remind us of campfires,
s’mores, and family.
