Bruce Molsky May 31, 2013

One of the most influential old-time fiddle players around, Molsky is also a remarkable guitarist, banjo player and singer. His high-spirited music melds the archaic mountain sounds of Appalachia, the power of blues and the rhythmic intricacies of traditional African music. The Washington Post says Bruce’s music ‘set[s] into motion melodies that radiate enormous spirit and momentum’, and Sing Out! says his fiddling ‘combines precision and abandon so perfectly that it raises the hairs on the back of your neck’. His 2001 album Poor Man’s Troubles was named by America’s Association for Independent Music as Traditional Folk winner in their annual album awards.
