Alice Gerrard

Alice Gerrard (born July 8, 1934) is an American bluegrass and old-time music performer, writer, editor and teacher. As a singer who plays guitar, fiddle and banjo, she performed and recorded solo and in ensembles, notably in a duo with Hazel Dickens, in the Strange Creek Singers (with Dickens, Mike Seeger, Tracy Schwarz, and Lamar Grier), and as the Back Creek Buddies (with Matokie Slaughter). Quotes Bill [Monroe], in some ways, he was very inarticulate about his feelings. In other ways, he was very profound about his feelings. And when you got him into a certain mood where he was being more introspective, he really could be very profound, I felt.
