The Most Interesting Bluegrass History! CJ Lewandowski | The Acoustic Shoppe Knows People Podcast

On this episode of The Acoustic Shoppe Knows People podcast, the Chapmans sit down with CJ Lewandowski, the Grammy-nominated mandolin player and founder of The Po' Ramblin' Boys. CJ is a true torchbearer for authentic, 1960s-style bluegrass, and he brings a wealth of stories to the table. We talk about the origins of The Po' Ramblin' Boys, his incredible Gibson Loar mandolin (and his own signature Lewandowski mandolins!), the influence of legends like Bobby Osborne, and what it’s like keeping the flame of traditional bluegrass burning bright in 2026. We are so happy to say TAS Knows CJ Lewandowski!
