Scruggs to help with salute to Steve Martin

By Dan Tackett Filed under: Bluegrass News Tagged with:

Bluegrass icon Earl Scruggs will perform this weekend in a tribute to another legend — film actor and comic Steve Martin, who is set to receive a Kennedy Center Honor in Washington, D.C.

Besides his abilities to act on film and tickle the funny bones, Martin plays Scruggs-style five string banjo.

Famed fiddler Mark O’Connor will also perform during the tribute, which will be taped for a Dec. 26 telecast on CBS.
