If you already know Darrell,

then we don't need to say anything. 

But, if you've never experienced him, you will be blown away.  He's written dozens of Top 40 Country hits (recognize this one?), and has 8 solo albums.  His solo work is exquisite, and he's also one of the most

in-demand session players in Nashville

(he plays 14 instruments!).

He regularly partners with many of our favorites---Tim O'Brien, Emmy Lou Harris, Jerry Douglas. 

Most recently, he's been playing with Robert Plant's Band of Joy.

Darrell's up for 2 Grammys this year!
