Don't give Dan Tyminski too much time on his hands. He'll form a traditional bluegrass band, record a CD, and hit the road on a new tour. Actually, his regular boss, Alison Krauss, granted her band, Union Station, a brief hiatus for most of this year while she went on tour with former Led Zeppelin rocker Robert Plant, and that opened a door of opportunity.
"There's been this group of guys—Ron Stewart, Adam Steffey, and myself and Barry Bales—who, for years, have jokingly said, 'Say when; let's go out and play.' It turned out this just ended up being the year we were able to make that happen."
