Saturday | Nov. 3, 7:30 p.m.
ALISON BROWN QUARTET with JOE CRAVEN
Called "One of bluegrass's great banjo players" by The Village Voice, Alison Brown takes the traditional instrument into entirely new neighborhoods of music. Combining classic hoedown with Celtic, Latin, and jazz grooves, the veteran of the Alison Krauss Band and Michelle Shocked's group creates a surprising and pleasing synthesis of sound. Her collaboration with fellow banjo master Bela Fleck won the 2000 Grammy for Best Country Instrumental Performance. Brown will be joined by mandolinist, violinist and percussionist extraordinaire, Joe Craven, founding member of the acoustic fusion group "Psychograss" and member of the beloved Garcia/Grisman band.
