Emmy, Grammy and American Comedy winner STEVE MARTIN joins THE STEEP CANYON RANGERS for an opening night concert of blockbuster bluegrass proportions. Mr. Martin, an accomplished banjo player, won a Grammy for Best Bluegrass Album for his 2010 “The Crow/New Songs for the Five-String Banjo.” He began his association with the Steep Canyon Rangers in 2009 during a broadcast of “A Prairie Home Companion” and has been making appearances with the leaders in modern bluegrass ever since. It’s sure to be a jammin’ night in Rudder when we kick-off the OPAS season with bluegrass stars THE STEEP CANYON RANGERS and the one-and-only STEVE MARTIN!
