Mandolin Carnival

Four prominent mandolinists – Don Stiernberg (Chicago) , Carlo Aonzo (Italy) , Brian Oberlin (Grand Rapids) and Don Julin (Traverse City) – collaborate for the first time. This musical free-for-all throws solos, duos, and full-on mandolin pileups at you like it’s some kind of stringed instrument carnival. Joining the fun is rhythm section Andy Henley (guitar) and Tom Knific (bass) . The genres range as far as your mind can wander as the one-of-a-kind group delves into classical, swing, bluegrass, originals and all things mandolin-istic.
