 WoodSongs - Monday, October 17th General Public: $10 Student ID: $5 WoodSongs Partners: Free  JAKE SCHEPPS is a banjo renaissance man, an artist with not only an adroit touch on his instrument but an intrepid, imaginative vision for contemporary stringband music. A student of traditional and progressive bluegrass styles as a player, Schepps has stretched beyond those genres to take his place alongside the Punch Brothers, Matt Flinner and other notables in a field the Colorado-based banjoist likes to call simply "new acoustic music." His new album, 'An Evening in the Village: The Music of Béla Bartók,' finds common ground between the beauty of the great Hungarian composer's take on Eastern European folk melodies and the big-sky vibrancy of new American acoustic music. jakeschepps.com HARPETH RISING is a group of four young classically trained musicians exploring the Americana genre. With a banjo and fiddle, you might think they're traditional bluegrass, but think again: cello and hand drums round out the group, creating a truly new sound. A little bit bluegrass, a little bit folk, a little bit classical and whole lot of original, Harpeth Rising just released their second album, with Grammy-award winning producer Bil VornDick, entitled 'Dead Man's Hand'. harpethrising.com |
