A Special Evening with Larry Sparks and the Lonesome Ramblers
Join us for an unforgettable night of authentic bluegrass as legendary Hall of Famer Larry Sparks takes the stage at the historic Franklin Theatre.
For more than five decades, Larry Sparks has been one of the most celebrated voices in bluegrass music. Known as the “King of Bluegrass Soul,” his unmistakable vocals, timeless guitar playing, and heartfelt songs have shaped generations of musicians. After launching his career with the legendary Stanley Brothers, Sparks went on to build one of the most influential careers in bluegrass history, earning multiple IBMA awards, a place in the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame, and the admiration of artists ranging from Ricky Skaggs and Del McCoury to Alison Krauss, Dan Tyminski, Billy Strings, and countless others who continue to draw inspiration from his music today.
This special evening is hosted by Franklin’s own Tennessee WoodPile, whose deep appreciation for traditional bluegrass—and artists like Larry Sparks—has helped them become local ambassadors for bluegrass throughout Williamson County and Middle Tennessee. Sharing the stage with one of their greatest musical heroes in their hometown is a dream come true, making this a truly meaningful event for both the band and the local bluegrass community.
Whether you’ve followed Larry Sparks for decades or are discovering his music for the first time, this promises to be a memorable evening of world-class musicianship, timeless songs, and the rich tradition that continues to inspire bluegrass fans everywhere.
One legendary night. One historic venue. One of the greatest voices bluegrass has ever known.
