More about Hazel and Alice-
two legendary musicians who changed the demographics of Bluegrass music forever when they took the stage at the head of a full band in 1962. Hazel Dickens and Alice Gerrard met at jam sessions and music parks. Hazel’s haunting soprano and Alice’s warm alto came together to create memorable music that inspired many other female artists. After four albums and a decade together, they pursued separate careers continuing to perform, record, advocate for important causes, and serving as influential mentors to many musicians over the years. Hazel & Alice were inducted into the IBMA Bluegrass Hall of Fame in 2017.
