David Grisman

Elected on March 4, 2009

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

David Grisman was recently recognized for his musical achievements by The Ancient Order of the Mandolin when he was elected an Honorary Member of the order. David is widely known as the founder of The David Grisman Quintet and for developing a style of music known as "Dawg Music." Probably no other mandolin player in that last 30 years has more profoundly affected the popularity of the mandolin more than David Grisman.

Sincerely,

B. Laird, Scribe
