Description
The New York Times as “the father of modern bluegrass” and by NPR as “the great banjo liberationist,” Tony Trischka has spent more than six decades redefining what the banjo can do while remaining deeply rooted in the tradition that inspired him.
Trischka’s mission comes into sharp focus with Earl Jam 2, the long-awaited companion to his Grammy and IBMA Award-nominated 2023 release Earl Jam. Both albums are built around a remarkable discovery: a cache of previously unheard recordings of Earl Scruggs and John Hartford informally jamming at Scruggs’ home between 1987 and 1998. Earl Jam 2 features 15 newly selected performances drawn from the same archive, spanning traditional standards, deep-cut fiddle tunes, and iconic American songs such as “Gentle on My Mind,” “Red River Valley,” and “That’s All Right.”
