expand/collapse Expand/collapse Biographical Information

Pete Kuykendall (1938-2017), also known as Pete Roberts, was a banjoist, guitarist, songwriter, discographer, and music publisher, who co-founded the leading bluegrass music publication, Bluegrass Unlimited. Kuykendall's music career began in the early 1950s, playing banjo with the husband and wife duo, Benny and Vallie Cain. In the late 1950s, Kuykendall briefly played with the bluegrass band, The Country Gentlemen, and appeared on some of their earliest recordings for Starday Records. Kuykendall is also known as a discographer of bluegrass music and as a music publisher. In the 1960s he recorded country blues men Mississippi John Hurt, Skip James, and the Rev. Robert Wilkins for the record labels Melodeon and Piedmont. In 1966 he co-founded the publication, Bluegrass Unlimited, with Gary Henderson, Dick Freeland, Dick Spottswood, and volunteers Dianne and Vince Sims. Kuykendall was also instrumental in the formation of the International Bluegrass Music Association and the International Bluegrass Music Museum, and in 1996, was inducted into the International Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame.
