The 2016 IBMA Fiddler and Female Vocalist and the 2018 IBMA Banjo Player have combined their musical wit and whimsy with the aim to entertain you in a bluegrass duo sort of way! Becky Buller has written songs for three Grammy award-winning albums by Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway; The Travelin’ McCourys; and the Infamous Stringdusters, as well as compositions for Bluegrass legends Rhonda Vincent, Doyle Lawson & Quicksilver, and many more. The Becky Buller Band (of which Ned is a member) is a frequent guest on WSM’s Grand Ole Opry. Her album, Distance And Time, was a 2021 IBMA Album Of The Year award nominee. She is a 10-time IBMA award winner and records for the Dark Shadow Recording label. The new album, Jubilee, releases in May 2024. Becky also serves on the boards of the IBMA Foundation and the East Tennessee State University Alumni Association and teaches private music lessons from her home studio in Manchester, Tenn. Most importantly, she’s Jeff’s wife and Romy’s mama. Ned Luberecki was inducted into the Banjo Hall Of Fame in 2024! He is the 2023 IBMA Broadcaster Of The Year, so named for being one of our favorite voices on Sirius/XM Satellite Radio’s Bluegrass Junction, heading up Saturday’s “Derailed” show and “More Banjo Sunday”, which includes the ever-popular “Sunday Banjo Lesson”. He and the Bluegrass Junction team received a 2016 IBMA Distinguished Achievement award. Ned is an internationally recognized banjo guru: he teaches online lessons, has a series of banjo instructional videos with TrueFire and a series of books with Alfred Publishing. Ned is also the voice of the IBMA Award Show. He has two singles that are doing well on the radio airplay charts: “Back In Baltimore” and “Magrathea”; listen for them wherever you grab your music.
