Lessons Learned

Ronnie Reno, whose musical talents helped forge the sound and songs of so many legendary Bluegrass and Country Music entertainers, celebrates 60 years in entertainment with the release of his new album, Lessons Learned, due in stores in March 2015. The first single release is Lower Than Lonesome, Lessons Learned is the perfect album title for the two-time IBMA honoree and Bluegrass Music's Youngest Old-Timer. Over the past 60 years, Ronnie Reno has had one of the most colorful, diverse and distinguished careers in the music industry-the lineage of which is a study of both traditional Country and Bluegrass music history. His musical talents have provided the foundation for a long list of seminal performers in both genres, including Reno & Smiley, The Osborne Brothers, Merle Haggard, The Reno Brothers, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and many others. As a songwriter, his music was cut by artists such as Vassar Clements, Sammi Smith and Merle Haggard, and his song Boogie Grass Band was a pivotal #1 smash hit for Conway Twitty.
