15-time Grammy Award winner Ricky Skaggs brings his signature bluegrass sound to Ariel-Foundation Park for the 2025 Summer Kickoff!
A key figure in modern bluegrass, Skaggs has spent decades shaping the genre while honoring its deep roots. Accompanied by his award-winning band, Kentucky Thunder, he delivers a performance defined by masterful musicianship and a rich catalog of songs that have influenced generations of artists.
Skaggs’ career is easily among the most significant in recent country music history. If Skaggs’ burgeoning trophy case full of awards wasn’t already enough evidence of that fact, consider that legendary guitarist Chet Atkins once credited Skaggs with “single-handedly saving country music.” His life’s path has taken him to various musical genres, from where it all began in bluegrass music, to striking out on new musical journeys, while still leaving his musical roots intact.
Ricky Skaggs is a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame and is a 15-time GRAMMY winner!
