Bruce Molsky | Deering Live Shorts

by David Bandrowski

We are honored to feature Bruce Molsky on Deering Live. Bruce is a true master of old time Appalachian music. He is equally strong on both the banjo and the fiddle and has received high praise from diverse fans and collaborators like Linda Ronstadt, Mark Knopfler, Celtic giants Donal Lunny and Andy Irvine, jazz guitarist Bill Frisell, and dobro master Jerry Douglas.

View our edited portions of this Deering Live on Deering Live Shorts. Listen to one quick bite sized tune or technique and come back later to watch another! We hope you enjoy!

For much of this episode Bruce is playing a Vega Vintage Star banjo. Find out more about this banjo here!
