IS IT SHOWTIME YET???

About Me

"Zhenya Kolykhanov – now known as Zhenya Rock – fell in love with bluegrass as a teenager in Russia. "I was 7 years old and was a typical good Russian schoolboy, going to a Soviet school. A magazine arrived with a disposable vinyl record in it. I played it, and I was blown away. I have been mesmerized by bluegrass ever since. I also listened to heavy rock, like Ozzy Osbourne, but bluegrass has always been a big part of my life." -Tim Finn, KC Star Fall Music Preview Critic's Pick
