Two-time Grammy winner Tim O’Brien is joined by his wife, mandolin player Jan Fabricius, for a show that will feature simple instrumentation, sweet harmonies, and songs that both advance and honor traditional music. O’Brien’s remarkable journey in roots music began when he saw Doc Watson performing on TV. From there, he was hooked on old-time and bluegrass music, and he’s made a career applying his songwriting and instrumental skills to both. His songs have been covered by Nickel Creek, Kathy Mattea, Garth Brooks, and many others, and his collaborations have included albums as part of Flatt & Scruggs tribute supergroup the Earls of Leicester, with his sister Mollie O’Brien, and as a duo with Darrell Scott. A founding member of Hot Rize (as well as their friends Red Knuckles and the Trailblazers), O’Brien has also found time for his own projects, including numerous solo albums, guest appearances, and an album of grassed-up Bob Dylan covers titled Red on Blonde.
