Buddy Griffin, a Sutton, W.Va., native, grew up impressed by the style of network radio performers in the late 1950s. Also consumed by the acoustic folk music boom in the 1960s, Buddy decided early in life that he wanted to be a professional musician.

Although his first instrument was the banjo, he plays fiddle, guitar, bass, mandolin, Autoharp and other stringed instruments.

Buddy graduated with a bachelor of arts degree in education. Shortly after college, Buddy became the staff banjo and fiddle player for WWVA's Jamboree USA in Wheeling, W.Va. During his career, Buddy has performed at bluegrass festivals throughout the United States and Canada with such artists as Bill Monroe, Mother Maybelle Carter, Mac Wiseman and the Goins Brothers and Jim & Jesse McReynolds.
