At the bottom of page one of the Citrus County Chronicle are articles containing folks we've been involved with and its quite a remarkable coincidence. Pictured to the left is Little Roy Lewis of the Lewis Family fame. He and Lizzy have played at each of the Big Bass Bluegrass & BBQ events in Inverness.
In the pictures to the right is Steve Martin and Mark Johnson of Dunnellon He played with Mark "Brink" Brinkman at the Gulf Hammock Fishing Club during our open house. Mark Johnson is credited with teaching Steve Martin to play the banjo clawhhammer style. He is being inducted. Into the hall of fame. Congratulations Mark..

So proud and humbled to see my father, Ralph Stanley, and Uncle Carter Stanley’s lifelong work in mountain music finally come to fruition as the newest 2026 Country Music Hall of Fame inductees- elect. So proud I could be there—and proud to carry on the name and musical heritage as Ralph Stanley II and The Clinch Mountain Boys 💙
