Biography

Bluegrass artist Randy Kohrs was born in Iowa where he picked up the acoustic guitar at the age of eight. His love for stringed instruments began to quickly blossom, as he would eventually learn electric guitar, acoustic and electric Dobro, lap/straight/pedal steel, mandolin, upright bass, and banjo (influenced by the likes of Flatt & Scruggs and Buck Owens). Eventually, Kohrs began backing other artists, including Patty Loveless on a taping of PBS' Austin City Limits, as well as other TV appearances by Tom T. Hall, Holly Dunn, and Hal Ketchum, in addition to session work with Hank Thompson, Walter Haitt, and Hank Williams III (resulting in Kohrs being nominated two times for Dobro Player of the Year by the International Bluegrass Music Association). October of 2001 saw the release of Kohrs' solo debut recording, A Crack in my Armour, on the Junction label.
