<h3>Torch bearers of the McCoury family legacy, taking the traditional string band sound to new levels of intensity and joy.</h3>
<strong>Ronnie McCoury</strong> on mandolin, <strong>Rob McCoury</strong> on banjo, <strong>Jason Carter</strong> on fiddle, and <strong>Alan Bartram</strong> on bass with featured guests on guitar and vocals, is the latest incarnation of the most awarded band in the history of bluegrass – <strong>The Del McCoury Band.</strong> No other band today has the same credentials for playing traditional and progressive acoustic music.
