Pee Wee Lambert (born Darrell Lambert; August 5, 1924 – June 15, 1965)[1] was a mandolinist who worked with The Stanley Brothers. He left the group in 1950. He sang in a "high voice" like Bill Monroe.[2] He highly admired Monroe. In addition to singing like him he is said to have imitated Bill Monroe's posture, dress, and facial expressions.[3] He also worked with Curly Parker as "Bluegrass Pardners."[4]
