Alison Brown

Acoustic instrumental music has never been so beautifully represented as by Alison Brown. She’s one of the most multi-faceted minds on today’s roots music scene, and every one of her endeavors is marked by innovation, intelligence, and grace. She throws out the textbook when it comes to playing the banjo, and the result is a sound that blends the rugged drive of bluegrass with the harmonic sensibilities of jazz, earning vast acclaim and a GRAMMY award in the process. Alison comes to Michigan with a new release, “On Banjo.”
