On the next episode of our live streamed series “Live Dispatch from Home,” ArtistWorks’ CEO and Co-founder Patricia Butler hosts and iconic banjo players Tony Trischka and Béla Fleck, as well as multi-instrumentalist and singer/songwriter Sierra Hull! They will be discussing the historical, evolving and popular styles of bluegrass music that these three musicians have directly influenced. 

Progressive banjo player Tony Trischka is a legend and one of the major innovators of the “chromatic” banjo style, making him a unique voice in the world of bluegrass. He also produced Steve Martin’s GRAMMY-nominated Rare Bird Alert, which featured performances by Paul McCartney and the Dixie Chicks. Béla Fleck is a 15-time Grammy Award winner and has been nominated in more categories than any other artist in Grammy history, and remains a powerfully creative force globally in bluegrass, jazz, classical pop, rock and world beat.

Singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Sierra Hull has hit more milestones already than many musicians accomplish in a lifetime. After making her debut at the age of 10, the virtuoso mandolinist played Carnegie Hall at age 12, then landed a deal with Rounder Records just a year later. Now 28-years-old, Hull is set to deliver her fourth full- length for Rounder titled 25 Trips.
