Learn bluegrass fiddle with Natalya Zoe Weinstein and John Cloyd Miller of Zoe & Cloyd. The duo will also open our Down Home Concert with Willie Watson on Friday, March 21.
This workshop is part of a series designed to support traditional artists from the 26 counties in Western North Carolina impacted by Hurricane Helene. As the storm rampaged through Western North Carolina last September, traditional music was among the cultural treasures it threatened. Popular gathering spots for music-making were damaged or destroyed, and in some cases folks lost beloved instruments to the floods. But like so much else in that region, the music found a way to keep going, and PineCone is happy to play a part. Several of our 2025 Down Home Concerts will feature an opening set by Western North Carolina traditional musicians, showcasing both the music and its unstoppable spirit. The visiting musicians will also host workshops like this one to teach their skills to players in the Piedmont, focusing on ballad singing, old-time banjo, old-time fiddle, and bluegrass fiddle.
