Jawbone

Jawbone featuring Tony Trischka, Bruce Molsky and Paula Bradley offers greater diversity than many other acts...Tony (www.tonytrischka.com) brings with him 38 years of musical experience which is reflected in his solo show which includes elements of everything from bluegrass to classical to the Beatles to John Hartford to jazz fusion. His solo show-- in addition to being highly entertaining and musicically brilliant-- also conveys the evolution/history of the banjo and it's players...then there's his famous banjo workshop. Bruce on old-time fiddle is every bit as amazing as Tony on banjo. Do you know that Bruce is also a multi-instrumentalist? (www.bruce molsky for more information) Paula Bradley is beautiful, earthy and amazing at singing harmony w/Bruce and playing old time guitar...and then there's her Appalachian Flat Foot Dancing and workshop! All this PLUS the Jawbone trio performance. Talk about a festival in a bottle!
