Loren Barrigar, of the Barrigar Brothers, is a local favorite in Syracuse, playing at venues throughout the area as well as performing tour dates this year that take him as far as Tennessee. Barrigar started playing guitar at age 4 and performed at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville with Chet Atkins at age 6. Before settling down in Central New York, Barrigar studied with Jimmy Atkins, Chet’s brother, which led to a national tour with the family band.
