Event Details

Music To My Ears - Ricky SkaggsWe had the chance on Tuesday afternoon to speak with Ricky Skaggs about his new record, Music To My Ears, which had just been released earlier that day. You can watch the entire interview on video below.

Ricky shared some details about the songs on the CD, and his deep and abiding affection for bluegrass shines through in every word.
