The International Bluegrass Music Association’s most awarded fiddler, Michael Cleveland, is embarking on a new venture with his first ever instructional video. Known as one of bluegrass music’s premier musicians, Cleveland has been offering lessons via Skype for several years, but it was his good friend, Gil Benson, who suggested an instructional video would be helpful to aspiring musicians and fans of Cleveland’s alike. With Benson’s guidance, and the accompaniment of Brian Allen on guitar and Tyler Griffith on bass, Michael has now released his first instructional video. (more…)
Becky Buller and Danny Paisley were first time winners in their categories for this year’s International Bluegrass Music Association Awards held in Raleigh, North Carolina on Thursday, September 29th. Becky Buller took home two trophies for Female Vocalist of the Year and Fiddle Player of the Year. She’s the first woman to win in the Fiddle category since the awards inception in 1990. Danny Paisley, for the first time in his 40+ year career, won Male Vocalist of the Year!
Michael Cleveland is one of bluegrass music’s great treasures: a 10-time IBMA fiddle player of the year and 2016 nominee, and 4-time Instrumental Group of the Year winner, Cleveland captured the attention of the bluegrass community as a child prodigy who performed on the Grand Ole Opry with Alison Krauss when he was only 13 years old. But he became a viral video sensation this summer with a virtuosic impromptu performance of “Jerusalem Ridge” that racked up over 6 million views in just a few days. Now mainstream music fans are discovering what the bluegrass community has known for years—Michael Cleveland is one of the most important fiddle players of his generation.
Two months in a row at #1 for Becky Buller’s latest release on the Bluegrass Unlimited National Bluegrass Survey Chart!
Michael Cleveland comes in at #2. I’m stoked!!
