Steve
Martin and The Steep Canyon Rangers swung into Las Vegas in support of their #1
bluegrass album, Rare Bird Alert, which recently received a Grammy® nomination
for Best Bluegrass Album. The tour comes on the heels of a banner year that saw
Martin and The Steep Canyon Rangers winning “Entertainer of the Year” at the
2011 International Bluegrass Association Awards. In the roughly three years since Steve Martin
and The Steep Canyon Rangers have been touring together they have delighted
audiences at Bonnaroo, New Orleans’ Jazzfest and The Newport Folk Festival to
name a few. They’ve embarked on four widely acclaimed tours with many critics
noting Martin’s “exceptional musicianship.” The OC Register said “what’s so
heartening and wonderful to see is Steve Martin back on stage, doing both
things he does best – playing banjo and being funny.”
