Guitariste
et chanteur Bluegrass né en 1973 à Asheville (Caroline du Nord).
Born near
Asheville, North Carolina, in 1973, guitarist Bryan Sutton picked up the guitar
at the age of eight and immersed himself in rock and jazz playing, but the
rhythms and melodies of bluegrass pickin' held his attention the strongest.
After high school, Sutton toured for two years backing gospel artist Karen Peck
before joining the contemporary country/gospel band Mid South. Landing in
Nashville, he found plenty of studio work playing not only guitar, but fiddle,
mandolin, and banjo as well, which led to a meeting with
Ricky Skaggs and a subsequent spot on Kentucky Thunder's roster. His years
with
Skaggs kept the rising star busy, but he still found time to work with
Aubrey Haynie,
Jerry Douglas, Don Rigsby, Bobby Hicks, and Hayseed. Sutton parted ways with
Kentucky Thunder in early 1999 and found session work with
Rhonda Vincent,
the Dixie Chicks, and
Dolly Parton, and was honored by the International Bluegrass Music
Association as 2000's Guitar Player of the Year. Acoustic label Sugar Hill
Records was more than happy to release his solo debut, 2000's Ready to Go (featuring
guest appearances by collaborators
Douglas,
Skaggs, and
Parton), and its 2003 follow-up, the more subdued and appropriately named
Bluegrass Guitar. Not Too Far from the Tree, also on Sugar Hill, appeared in
2006.
Sam Bush,
Béla Fleck, and
Jerry Douglas were just some of the guests on his 2009 release, Almost Live.
Five years later he returned with the studio set Into My Own, which was quickly
followed by The More I Learn in 2016.
