Description:
Jonathan Estep began broadcasting on World Wide Bluegrass when he was 15 years old. While some folks may think that may be a rather young age, Jonathan is quite an accomplished Bluegrass musician. He plays mandolin, upright bass, guitar, and piano. He can sing just about any vocal part and has been the solo host on his World Wide Bluegrass show "Running the Ridge" since the spring of 2007. Jonathan has interviewed Russell Moore, "Little" Roy Lewis, Jamie Dailey and Darrin Vincent and several others for his show. Jonathan began singing in church at the age of 2 1/2. Jonathan started playing the bass at the age of 8 1/2 with the Bluegrass gospel band "The King's Strings". At the time, he was so height-challenged and the bass was as upright as ever and he had to stand on a milk crate to play the instrument. After 7 and a half years of playing the bass for his father's Bluegrass gospel band Revival Ridge (during which time he, needless to say, out-grew the milk crate) Jonathan switched to the full-time mandolin job in the band. Jonathan teaches private music lessons, runs Solid Sounds Studios in his hometown of Bellevue, Kentucky and does some studio musician work when the opportunity presents itself. Check Jonathan out on www.myspace.com/revivalridge. Jonathan plays Grey Eagle mandolins exclusively.
