Stanley began playing music in 1946, originally with his brother Carter as part of "The Stanley Brothers", and most often as the leader of his band, "Ralph Stanley & the Clinch Mountain Boys".

I looked on the archives here for Ralph Stanley and also with the Clinch Mountain Boys but in either search did I see the concerts he played at Music Mill Indianapolis in 2008 or the Bluegrass Festival at Indpls Airport in the latter 1990s oh well somebody knows and I cannot find my ticket stubs but he signed a banjo head for me which I was just trying to date when from the festival.
