Description
Dan Tyminski was six years old when his parents began taking him to fiddle
contests, square dances, and bluegrass festivals across New England. For a young
musician who would later become one of the biggest names in modern-day
bluegrass, those early experiences were life changing.
"Watching live music always spoke to me much louder than sitting in front of my
record player," he remembers. "I loved it. Wherever music was being played, I
wanted to go watch. Years later, I still feel that way."
Throughout his 30+ year career, Tyminski has left his mark in every corner of modern
music. His voice famously accompanies George Clooney’s performance of the
Stanley Brothers’ classic song, “I Am A Man of Constant Sorrow,” in the film, Oh
Brother, Where Art Thou? and his vocal collaboration with Swedish DJ Avicii on the
song “Hey Brother” was a global smash, having been streamed more than a billion
times to date. His diverse solo projects and years of work with Alison Krauss and
Union Station have yielded troves of award-winning music.
In recent years, Tyminski’s live shows with the Dan Tyminski Band have become
bluegrass fan favorites and are regularly on the must-see lists among music fans of
any genre.
With his newest album release – the Grammy-nominated 2024 concert album Dan
Tyminski: Live From The Ryman – he captures the magic of those live shows, while
also proving that he still has the same passion for live music as he did when he was
growing up.
His earliest touring and recording work was as a part of the band, Green Mountain
Bluegrass. He later joined the influential bluegrass group, Lonesome River Band,
before embarking on his three decades of work with Alison Krauss and Union
Station.
