Ellis is known for being one of the best bluegrass banjo pickers born in the Old North State. Sunday Evening Music Host Joe Greene says he'll feature mandolin virtuoso Tony Williamson on this week's show - Williamson is also a native North Carolinian musician who was born and raised in the Piedmont. The multi-talented musician, songwriter, playwright and actor Ed Snodderly will also make an appearance on MerleFest Radio Hour this week... click on title for more. He's from Tennessee and is one of the co-founders of the Down Home venue in Johnson City, TN. And, one more thing just to add to the goodness, Snodderly was one of the musicians in O, Brother, Where Art Thou? Yes. Steve Johnson sits down for an interview with some personalities at RTE Radio One in Dublin Ireland. He'll talk music and MerleFest and Greene will play music from one of his guests, Niall Toner, a MerleFest Alumnus. Toner is a talented Irish bluegrass musician, songwriter, event organizer and radio broadcaster from Dublin.
