What more can we say? Nine-time IBMA Fiddle Player of the Year, Michael Cleveland and his band Flamekeeper are also multiple IBMA Instrumental Group of the Year. He is simply one of the best fiddlers in bluegrass history, backed by an equally amazing group of musicians. The Flamekeepers currently include Nathan Livers (mandolin), Tyler Griffith (bass), Joshua Richards (guitar), and Gavin Largent (banjo and resophonic guitar).
