Dan Tyminski

Born in Rutland, Vermont, on June 20, 1967, guitarist and singer Dan Tyminski became familiar with country and bluegrass music at an early age. He learned to play mandolin and banjo, then guitar, before launching his career in 1985 with the album Green Mountain Boys, where he assembled a band for the occasion. After joining the Lonesome River Band at the turn of the 1990s, he met Alison Krauss, who recruited him for her Union Band, of which he is still a member. In addition to sessions accompanying artists such as Dolly Parton, Vince Gill and Randy Travis, and singing on the Grammy Award-winning soundtrack to the film O Brother Where Are Thou (2000), Dan Tyminski resumed his own career, recording the album Carry Me Across the Mountain (2000), and continued his collaborative work with the album Wheels (2008), which topped the bluegrass charts. In 2013, he took part in Swedish DJ Avicii's "Hey Brother", which charted worldwide. He returned a few years later with the somber Southern Gothic (2017) and The Planetarium Sessions EP (2019), then God Fearing Heathen (2023), again No. 1 in the bluegrass sales and listening charts. In 2024, Live from the Ryman Auditorium, an account of his concert at the Ryman Auditorium, was released.
