Back by popular demand...the incredible Grammy-nominated TONY TRISCHKA returns to Listen Live Music with his band Territory for a holiday show! Tony brought the house down with a solo show in March of 2010, and we are so pleased to welcome him back! He is an absolute master of the banjo - he's won an IBMA, taught Bela Fleck, and produced Steve Martin. He's perhaps the most influential banjo player in the roots music world. For more than 35 years, his stylings have inspired a whole generation of bluegrass and acoustic musicians. He is not only considered among the very best pickers, but is one of the instrument's top teachers, creating numerous instruction books and a revolutionary banjo lesson website experience. Don't miss this artist that Billboard calls "one of the most impressive banjoists alive."
Opening for The Tony Trischka Band will be local bluegrass siblings The Zepp Family. Bringing their homegrown sound to the stage with their blood harmonies and family sound, the Zepps' music will be a great way to start out the night!
The drawings to give away the guitar donated by Martin Guitars and signed by all artists, as well as the Olympus Electronics Basket, will take place at this event. It'll be your last chance to buy raffle tickets!
