The Jerry Douglas Band

About

The Jerry Douglas Band features Gerald Calvin Douglas, an American Dobro and lap steel guitar player born on May 28, 1956. Douglas is widely regarded as perhaps the finest Dobro player in contemporary acoustic music and certainly the most celebrated and prolific. A 14-time Grammy winner, he has been called "Dobro's matchless contemporary master" by The New York Times. As both a solo artist and member of numerous bands including Alison Krauss and Union Station and The Earls of Leicester, Douglas is among the most innovative recording artists in music. He has served as a co-director of the Transatlantic Sessions since 1998. In 2024, Douglas was inducted into the International Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame, cementing his legacy as one of the most influential musicians in his genre.
