The irreducible element is Mr. Strings himself, born William Lee Apostol in 1992. Certain artists just have that “special something,” and Billy is certainly one. Its appeal to a generation raised on sparkling, impactful entertainment is unmistakable; They clearly see him as a star.

And did we mention he can play? Billy Strings is a great bluegrass guitarist who is well versed in everything that came before and has great respect for the music that shaped him. He writes and sings original music in that spirit and with a truly great band that can play contemporary and modern bluegrass with the best.

Musical artists typically appear in the final segment of the hour-long program, although Fallon may bring in Billy to talk about his latest album. Highway Prayersin an earlier block.
