Marion Sumner has earned the title ‘Fiddle King of the South.’ His years on the road with Opry stars Johnny and Jack, Kitty Wells, Roy Acuff, Jim and Jesse, and Don Gibson have made him a legend among fellow musicians. Raised above Vicco in Perry County, Kentucky, and joined his first band after winning a fiddle contest during the 1937 Black Gold Festival in Hazard, Kentucky. “Road to Home” is one of only three personal solo albums Sumner recorded.
