JUNIOR
SISK
Junior
Sisk is widely recognized as one of today's top bluegrass vocalists
and is a constant reminder that traditional bluegrass is still
alive and well. A longtime resident of the Virginia Blue Ridge, his
bluegrass pedigree runs deep. Influenced by a father who wrote
songs and played guitar and a mother who sang, Sisk first learned
to play around age 14.
His early
influences included The Stanley Brothers, Larry Sparks, and Dave
Evans, but he often credits the Johnson Mountain Boys with
inspiring him to pursue bluegrass professionally. Sisk first made
his mark in bluegrass as a songwriter in the early 1990s, penning
classic Lonesome River Band songs like "Game (I Can't
Win)" and "Tears Are Blinding Me." Solidifying the
success of the latest album, Junior Sisk has received a landslide
of nominations in the IBMA Awards for 2021, including Album Of The
Year, for LOAD THE WAGON, Song Of The Year, for "Just Load The
Wagon" and Male Vocalist Of The Year.
