You may already know the wildly exploratory and 5x JUNO nom/7x CFMA winning Andrew Collins through his work with The Foggy Hogtown Boys, the equally mind-bending Creaking Tree String Quartet or the Trio, itself – but you’ll never put a label on him for his approach to folk, newgrass, jazz and even some chamber-oriented roots music. Bending and blending genres, these musical shape shifters land somewhere between the re-imagined worlds of Béla Fleck and Newgrass invader, David Grisman.

His skills on mandolin, fiddle, guitar, mandola, mandocello and smooth vocals merge with the rich talents of Adam Shier (guitar, mandolin, vocals) and James McEleney (bass, mandocello and harmony vocals) and represent a back-to-basics visitation on what the band does best — spontaneity of the stage and rapid-fire, improvisational exchanges.
