The David Grisman Bluegrass Experience

about

Veteran mandolin virtuoso David Grisman has pioneered a music style he named “dawg:” a t(w)angy, innovative blend of swing, Latin, bluegrass, jazz and gypsy, influences drawn together through a long and varied career that has included playing as a session man with the likes of Bela Fleck, the Grateful Dead, Stephane Grappelli, Emmylou Harris, Bonnie Raitt, and Maria Muldaur. Uniqueness, independence and “home-made music” are important parts of Grisman’s career: a strong force for artist-owned labels, Grisman founded his record company, Acoustic Disc, in 1990 and has been particularly prolific in producing recordings since: 55 and counting, with 5 of those nominated for Grammys. The David Grisman Bluegrass Experience is one of Grisman’s several projects. Joined by Keith Little on banjo, Jim Nunally on guitar, Chad Manning on fiddle, and Samson Grisman on bass, DGBX has been known to inspire blocks-long line-ups in anticipation of their hometown San Francisco shows.
