About Vassar Clements
Fiddler Vassar Clements became known as a bluegrass musician par excellence, playing with Bill Monroe, Jim & Jesse, and others in the 1950s. However, his musical vision was much wider than that, encompassing jazz, blues, and more. In addition to pursuing a solo career, he eventually worked with a host of younger musicians from the country and pop/rock worlds, including Jerry Garcia, Emmylou Harris, David Bromberg, and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. Clements died at home in 2005, having created a musical legacy that stretched out over more than 50 years.
