CHAMPION FIDDLER RIDGE ROBERTS TO UNVEIL ALL-INSTRUMENTAL FIDDLE ALBUM
GRANBURY, TEXAS—There's been quite a buzz surrounding Ridge Roberts’ debut fiddle album, “Ridge Roberts—Lone Star Fiddler”, and for good reason. At the ripe old age of 17, the fiddle champion has been entertaining people all over the great state of Texas, for almost a decade, and all over the rest of the United States for the last five years. He’s been playing in a band since he was 14 and he is currently the fiddler for The Western Flyers.
The highly sought-after fiddler from Granbury was honored to work with two of the best Texas style fiddle musicians, the legendary Joey McKenzie on rhythm and tenor guitar, and Dennis Crouch on upright bass. McKenzie is a world champion fiddler, the founder of the Quebe Sisters Band, and currently the band leader of The Western Flyers; Crouch, an A-list session Nashville musician, and co-founder of The Time Jumpers, has performed with notable musicians such as Johnny Cash, Elton John, Harry Connick Jr., and Willie Nelson to name a few.
