*Jerry Douglas
Jerry Douglas is a most innovative musician, both solo and as a member of groundbreaking bands including The Country Gentlemen, J.D. Crowe & the New South, Boone Creek, The Whites, Strength in Numbers (with Sam Bush, Bela Fleck, Edgar Meyer, and Mark O’Conner), and since 1998, a key member of Alison Krauss + Union Station. As a recording artist, Douglas’s distinctive sound graces more than 2000 albums, including discs released by James Taylor, Phish, Paul Simon, Bill Frisell, Earl Scruggs, Ray Charles, Lyle Lovett, Bill Evans, the Chieftains, and the 8 million-plus selling soundtrack to O Brother, Where Art Thou.

While a large section of music aficionados may know the sound of Jerry Douglas from albums and concerts with other artists, it is on his own solo projects where the artist truly stretches the boundaries of his musical vision. He has established himself a force in the recording studio, as both musician and as producer, since the release of his debut album, Fluxology, in 1979.

The restless creative spirit, which is the common thread in his eclectic discography, also is prominent through every moment of is most recent solo releases, The Best Kept Secret (Koch Records) and the 2007 collection Jerry Douglas: Best of the Sugar Hill Years (Sugar Hill Records), highlighting selections from five of his trailblazing recordings.

Balancing his solo career, his work in Union Station and a variety of collaborative efforts has kept Jerry Douglas sedulously active in 2007. After his eponymous band acquired a completely new set of fans in 2006 (having been honored with opening act slot for the legendary Paul Simon), they have continued to break new stylistic barriers. The Jerry Douglas Band may been seen at prestigious festivals (Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival, Bonnaroo), as featured artists on the A Prairie Home Companion live radio show, and on televised specials of A Prairie Home Companion.

Jerry Douglas was a featured player at Eric Clapton’s 2007 Crossroads Guitar Festival. Douglas has recently completed work as Music Director for Transatlantic Sessions 3, a weekly television special airing on BBC TV during autumn 2007, featuring highly acclaimed artists from Scotland, Ireland, and America. This BBC project has reunited Douglas with his long time collaborator, Sir Aly Bain.
