Biography
In the 1990s she branched out into mainstream country music but did not enjoy the success anticipated there. With the release of her album "Back Home Again" in 2000, she returned to bluegrass with the goal of expanding both the musical reach and the accessibility of the genre. Since then she has seen her popularity and acceptance rise and has received acclaim from several music-industry groups. The International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) accorded her its Female Vocalist of the Year award for the years 2000 - 2006, plus IBMA Entertainer of the Year in 2001. The Society for Preservation of Bluegrass Music in America (SPBGMA) designated her its Entertainer of the Year for 2002 - 2006 inclusive. [3] She also performs with her band, Rhonda Vincent & the Rage
.
Vincent married Herb Sandker in 1984. They have two daughters, Sally (b. 1986) and Tensel (b. 1988). She is the sister of bluegrass performer and producer Darrin Vincent ( Kentucky Thunder, Dailey & Vincent).
At the end of the 2008 year, two members of the Rage, Kenny Ingram and Darrell Webb, announced that they were leaving the group. It is unknown right now why.
