John McEuen is a founding member of The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and has personally logged 9,500 plus concert appearances and traveled 3 million plus miles on the road both during his time as a member of NGDB and now as a solo performer.

McEuen is in his 15th year of hosting his Acoustic Traveler show on Sirius/XM and is featured in the Ken Burns documentary Country Music, which has aired on PBS. He also recently released a coffee table book showcasing 150 rare and unseen photos from the Will The Circle Be Unbroken writing and recording sessions to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the release.
