This event has passed.
Widely regarded as one of the most innovative and genre-bending
artists of his craft, Barnes' musical interests are both varied and
adventurous, and he incorporates that versatility into a progressive
approach to an instrument that is musically polarizing and steeped in
tradition. Although he demonstrates an appreciation for the history of the
bluegrass, country, and folk music from which the banjo's reputation was
born, his inventive take is what truly separates him from his
contemporaries...using the banjo as his 'weapon of choice' to play
non-traditional music like rock, fusion, and jazz with electronic percussion
and loop elements.
