“Tony Rice is not only a good friend and
inspiration to mine and Steve’s music, but he is someone who has
inspired so many people – not only in the bluegrass community, but also
crossing so many other genres. We want to recognize and pay tribute to
his tremendous talent. Tony has truly influenced us with his acoustic
guitar and his musical boundaries are unlimited. After all the artists
that have come down the pike, he is the first guitarist in my opinion,
to truly inspire and move the music forward.  If you think of guitar –
you think of Tony Rice.  He has been a true visionary and took the
instrument to heights that no one had ever thought of,” explained Mark
Newton.
