Performed continually since 1946. The patriarch of traditional and bluegrass music still does over 150 dates a year.
Has recorded over 170 albums, more than 30 albums in over 30 years with Rebel Records.
Has written and recorded many songs that have become bluegrass standards.
Has unique style - unlike Bill Monroe's style of Flatt & Scruggs'.
He is one of the last living founders of a distinctly American art form, which blends rural-based lyrics with fluid, jazz-like instrumental improvisations.
Stanley's musicÑparticularly his high, mournful vocals-is so raw, powerful and authentic that it moves and inspires performers from all musical genres.
Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Dwight Yoakam, Vince Gill, Jerry Garcia, Hal Ketchum, Patty Loveless, John Anderson credit Stanley as a major inspiration.
