The Sparta Flash! Blake Williams is best known as a Bluegrass Boy, but one that witnessed some of the final years of his band leader, The Father of Bluegrass, Bill Monroe. Road stories from the last days of the first generation of bluegrass creators and Blake’s early years growing up in Sparta, TN, the home of legendary Lester Flatt, make for a must-hear history of this music. Blake Williams is a veteran of the road and stage. We will hear great stories of the life of an excellent banjo player, and a fine man.
