Description

Considered by critics and audiences as one of the true masters of mandolin today, Grammy Award-winning mandolinist John Reischman has been a composer, bandleader, and musical educator in bluegrass and North American roots and folk music since emerging from the vibrant “new acoustic” music scene of the Bay Area in the 1980s. Reischman’s mastery of bluegrass, old-time, swing, and multiple Latin American musical styles, coupled with an Old Master’s sense of tone, taste and musicality, has brought him a global reputation as one of the finest mandolinists of his era. Over the years, Reischman has collaborated with a remarkably wide range of artists and is a sought-after instructor at mandolin workshops and acoustic music camps. He is a rare instrumentalist who can be recognized within his first few notes, especially on his legendary 1924 Lloyd Loar-signed Gibson F-5 mandolin. “He is a master in the truest sense of the word.” — Red Line Roots For Tickets - Click Here!
