Béla Fleck and Abigail Washburn

By ugc on April 4, 2016 in

Both credited for revolutionising the banjo, together, Béla Fleck and Abigail Washburn are a one-of-a-kind pairing. Combining the virtuosic ingenuity of an instrumentalist who transcends his bluegrass roots, with the earthy sophistication of a postmodern, old-time singer-songwriter, Fleck and Washburn lend their distinct musical personalities and banjo styles to a diverse repertoire spanning Appalachian murder ballads, gospel, chamber and blues. Don’t miss them on their first Australian tour, hot on the heels of their win at the 2016 Grammy Award for Best Folk Album.
