Renowned banjo maestro Noam Pikelny, a founding member of the Grammy-winning Punch Brothers, will be performing with his new band of Friends at the Paramount Theatre in Rutland. The show will feature special guest Caitlin Canty, the Americana singer-songwriter who is also Pikelny’s wife. The performance will include a mix of bluegrass classics and new material, showcasing Pikelny’s roots in the music genre.
Pikelny has assembled a talented group of musicians for the show, all of whom are younger than him and bring fresh perspectives to the music. The band members have been rehearsing intensively to prepare for the performance, which will include a mix of original songs and classic bluegrass tunes. The lineup includes Jake Eddy on guitar, Dan Klingsberg on bass, Julian Pinelli on fiddle, and Teo Quale on mandolin.
Pikelny has been working on new material inspired by the instrumental music of Norman Blake, a legendary figure in bluegrass and folk music. He hopes to reimagine Blake’s tunes on the banjo and bring a new perspective to the music. The show promises to be a unique and exciting showcase of both classic and contemporary bluegrass music, highlighting Pikelny’s musical talents and the skills of his band of Friends.
The performance at the Paramount Theatre is part of a mini-tour of the Northeast, and Pikelny is excited to return to the venue where he has had previous memorable performances. Fans of bluegrass music and acoustic folk are sure to enjoy this night of live music from a talented group of musicians led by the iconic banjo player, Noam Pikelny.
