Tony Trischka is considered to be the consummate banjo artist and one of the most influential banjo players in the roots music world. For more than 50 years, his stylings have inspired a whole generation of bluegrass and acoustic musicians with the many voices he has brought to the instrument. He’s been nominated twice for Grammy awards, and has won numerous International Bluegrass Music Association awards including Banjo Player of the Year.
Heralded as “a leading light of the New York bluegrass scene” by the New York Times, Georgia-born guitarist/singer Michael Daves has garnered attention for his work with Tony Trischka, Steve Martin, and Chris Thile, with whom he shares a Grammy nomination for their 2011 album Sleep With One Eye Open. Daves’ unruly interpretations of American roots music standards have won him a place of almost fanatical admiration as a "renegade traditionalist."
Erik Alvar is one of NYC’s most formidable upright bassists, bringing together deep bluegrass feel with classical chops. He has toured with Billy Strings, Nefesh Mountain, Tony Trischka, Rebecca Frazier, The Roys, and Jim Hurst among others. This will be one of Erik’s last gigs as NYC resident, before a move to North Carolina. Come give him a fond farewell!
