Larry Keel is considered a king among flatpicking acoustic guitarists and a master of Bluegrass pyrotechnics, but he draws musical sustenance from every style of playing on the planet. Born in Virginia, revered in western NC, Keel was raised on traditional mountain music, but he embraces country, progressive, Gypsy jazz – you name it. The only constant is his gymnastic and fluid precision on guitar, and an uncanny knack to put together an endless stream of musical ideas. He’s a master with no pretense.
