If you enjoyed the Gatlin Brothers and So You Think You Can Dance LIVE! 2019, don’t miss our closing Hylton Center EXTRA! performance on the 2019/2020 series: banjo superstars Béla Fleck and Abigail Washburn (4/24). Each a banjo icon in his/her own right, this husband and wife duo is teaming up for a rare appearance together—at the Hylton! A 15-time Grammy® Award-winner, Fleck rose to fame in the ‘80s playing progressive bluegrass with the New Grass Revival and co-founding the Fleckstones, garnering worldwide acclaim on the banjo with his creative musical fusions of funk, hip-hop, classical, and jazz. Also no stranger to high-profile collaborations, Washburn has performed with old-time bands Uncle Earl and Sparrow Quartet, and is part of the experimental duo the Wu Force with Chinese zither player Wu Fei. Fleck and Washburn have released two albums together, including their Grammy® Award-winning self-entitled set and Echo in the Valley. Get your tickets TODAY for this extraordinary duo, revered for its boundary-pushing, alternative bluegrass.
