Abigail Washburn and the Sparrow Quartet featuring Bela Fleck
Northampton, MA
Saturday, May 31 at 7 pm
Performer Links:
May 2008 marks the release of Abigail Washburn and the Sparrow Quartet, the follow-up to Abigail’s acclaimed Nettwerk debut, Song of the Traveling Daughter. In the fall of 2006, the Sparrow Quartet – which features world renowned banjoist, composer Bela Fleck (also the album’s producer), Grammy-nominated fiddler Casey Driessen and roots/classical cellist Ben Sollee - became the first artists to tour Tibet and China on a US government sponsored cultural mission. The new album is an intimate exploration of crossing global and cultural lines brought to life by the borderless sounds of two banjos, fiddle and cello. The music is raw and highly composed, equally hopeful and acutely aware of the struggle of life.
