Sam Bush
Date: 01/15/2009 at 7:30pm

Though he admits a certain discomfort with the moniker "King of Newgrass," Sam Bush has more than earned it. He was cofounder and leader of the seminal progressive bluegrass band New Grass Revival through 18 years during the 1970s and ‘80s – a band that also featured such revered bluegrass names as John Cowan, Bèla Fleck and Pat Flynn. Bush may not be the only person responsible for newgrass — the wild bluegrass stepchild that features rock 'n' roll grooves and extended virtuosic jams – but since New Grass Revival's dissolution in 1989, Bush has certainly been one of the most brilliant of newgrass' many bright lights.
