At RockyGrass 2025, guitarist and educator Tyler Grant spoke with KGNU about teaching at the RockyGrass Academy, his fundamentals-based approach to flatpicking, and the inspiration students gain from immersing themselves in bluegrass. He reflected on the high level of musicianship in the genre, its connections to classical training, and the joy of community playing. Grant also previewed his special RosenGrants set with Charlie Rose, featuring an all-star band and surprise guests, calling RockyGrass “the Disneyland of bluegrass music.”
