New Album Reviewed in The New York Times - read online
“Territory” (Smithsonian Folkways/Ryko) is considerably more than a showcase for the virtuoso banjo playing of Tony Trischka, though that may seem like its principal function. The album is a full-bore banjo tutorial — Mr. Trischka’s track-by-track notes include tunings and occasional tips — and a familial jaunt through folk and bluegrass terrain. There are just a few guests, both time-tested (Pete and Mike Seeger, on separate tracks) and up-and-coming (the guitarist and singer Michael Daves, the fiddler Brittany Haas). Mr. Trischka provides a steady through line, drawing clear connections not only to Celtic reels but also West African kora music and Hawaiian slide guitar.
