American music masters Edgar Meyer, Mike Marshall, and George Meyer join together for a special collaboration more usually heard at summer bluegrass festivals. Edgar Meyer is the only bassist to be awarded both the prestigious Avery Fisher Prize and MacArthur Grant, and is a sought-after recording artist and celebrated composer of a range of music that encompasses classical, bluegrass, newgrass, and jazz. Three-time Grammy Nominee Mike Marshall is one of the most accomplished mandolists performing and recording today. He is also a master of the mandocello, guitar, and violin; seamlessly integrating jazz, classical and Brazilian musical styles into an American string band background. Edgar’s son George is charting his own course in the musical world. Interested in the commonalities between classical and fiddle music, George represents the next generation of artists expressing their unique voices and perspectives. Audience members can expect to hear works from the genre bending album Short Trip Home, as well as new music written specifically for this tour.
