Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame member Doyle Lawson is one of the most important architects of the bluegrass genre. The critically acclaimed artist, the recipient of numerous music awards over the course of his impressive, influential 56-year career, is one of the most respected - and revered - performers in bluegrass today. Many consider DLQ as the Ivy League of bluegrass, with Lawson as the dean of students; perhaps no other band leader has mentored more student-musicians who have gone on to become major players in the bluegrass industry and beyond.
