David Grier
David Grier is an American acoustic guitarist. A three-time IBMA guitarist of the year, Grier has been lauded as highly influential and a master flatpicker by music publications and several of his colleagues. Grier is particularly known for crosspicking, as well as unique phrasing and repeated variations of melody and harmony parts. The Bluegrass Situation has noted Grier's "phenomenal cross-picking guitar techniques, which put him among the greatest bluegrass players of the last several decades." He has the rare distinction of appearing as a guitarist on bluegrass albums which have been nominated for Grammy Awards in three different decades.
