To
coincide with the release of double banjo album on Rounder
Records (January 2007 release date), Tony Trischka will
be touring this coming winter with a crack acoustic band.
The cd features Tony in duets with Earl Scruggs, Steve
Martin, Bela Fleck, Alison Brown, Scott Vestal, Tom Adams,
Kenny Ingram and others. Back-up musicians include Sam
Bush, Jerry Douglas, Chris Thile, Tony Rice, Stuart Duncan,
and Dudley Connell, to name a few.
Tony Trischka has been recording and touring for the last
35 years. He’s been a key figure in opening the
banjo and acoustic music in general to wider influences.
In addition to the above named line-up, Tony has shared
stage and studio with such folks as David Grisman, John
Denver, The Boston Pops, William S. Burroughs, Hazel Dickens,
Jorma Kaukonen, Ralph Stanley, and countless others. He’s
spent 35 years recording for Rounder Records and has also
authored and videoized a treasure trove of instructional
materials.
The touring band will bring Noam Pikelny up from Nashville.
Noam is also on the cd and has gigged and recorded extensively
with Leftover Salmon, John Cowan and Chris Thile. He can
burn with a traditional fire, or step out into more progressive
areas. Also on hand will be Michael Daves on vocals and
guitar. Michael has toured the US and Europe with Roseanne
Cash and is a fixture on the Northeast bluegrass scene.
His appearance at Merlefest this past spring was a triumph.
With a voice that can blow down a barn door from 50 paces
and a blazing, lead guitar, Michael is in line to be one
of the all time-acoustic greats.
Skip Ward will lay down the stand-up bass lines that anchor
the band. Skip has studied with Jaco Pastorius and tours
with Phoebe Snow. He can stretch in any musical direction.
The music will be primarily bluegrass oriented with a
few side-trips to other acoustic ports.
