David is best known for founding and fronting 1946, a locotomtive of a bluegrass band that's about as close to experiencing Bill Monroe's original Blue Grass Boys as you can hear in this lifetime. Something precious and endangered gets a fresh lease on life when Peterson performs. In a time when country music has been hollowed out by mass-market radio and invaded by 80s rock stars, Peterson's profound respect for the bona fide tradition has created a refuge where the sounds and spirit of the Ryman-era Grand Ole Opry sing with the lungs of a young man.
