John Hartford, one of the reasons I took up the fiddle.
If you ever listened to the soundtrack of "O' Brother Where Art Thou?" He's that amazing fiddle solo at track 13 that just speaks volumes of lonely.

Yeah, Bluegrass is a specific genre that is more recent than most of what gets called Old Time. I don't really know those genres well enough to go into the specifics.
But you could start with the omnipresent wiki entries to get a better idea of the difference.
