One Night…One Admission…Two dynamite bands. To many, Dan Tyminski is the ace guitarist/mandolinist and soulful tenor in Alison Krauss’s band Union Station. To others, he is the Grammy-winning singing voice behind George Clooney’s character in the hit film O Brother, Where Art Thou? More than the sum of these two parts, Tyminski is also a revered leader of his own first-rate band that released its second album, titled Wheels, in June 2008 to critical acclaim. Tony Rice is considered one of the greatest innovators in acoustic flatpicked guitar of his generation. His band, Tony Rice Unit, spans the range of music from straight-ahead bluegrass to jazz-influenced new acoustic music. The bands will perform separate 60-minute sets.
