WELCOME TO THE LEGACY OF THREE COLORADO BANDS

The Righteous Bluegrass Band ~~ Rufus Krisp ~~ Gone Johnson 

The 1970’s and 80’s the Colorado music scene burgeoned with much young talent of all genres.  One of those was a 4-piece bluegrass band in 1970 that evolved through three evolutions with players who later garnered an Emmy nomination, a number one Billboard song, orchestra compositions, University level music teaching, movie and TV soundtracks and dozens of recordings.  One musician lasted through all iterations and it wasn’t the obvious singer/songwriter but rather the banjo player!  Country was spawning a new sound — country rock and the banjo was able to run the table, at least in these three band kinships.  Here is their story.
