Dusty Miller (w/Tony Rice), 14. Ragtime Annie (w/David Grier) Originally from North Carolina, Bryan Sutton began playing guitar at age eight, and his first professional job playing guitar came in 1992 with Karen Peck, a southern gospel artist. In 1993, Sutton moved to Nashville and joined a gospel group called Mid South. Between 1995 and 2004, he found himself working with Ricky Skaggs, Dolly Parton, Dixie Chicks, Hot Rize and Earl Scruggs. A multiple winner of the IBMA Guitar Player of the Year Award, Sutton has a number of key influences on the instrument. In late-2004, he got the idea to record duets with his musical heroes. With his 1940 Martin D-28 Herringbone, he set out with his digital recorder (an Alesis ADAT- XT-8) and some mics (Neumann K-54s and a U-87) to record duets with his friends in the comfort of their homes or a nearby studio.In the process, he tied in with his buddies Doc Watson, Tony Rice, Ricky Skaggs, Jerry Douglas, Norman Blake, George Shuffler, Dan Crary, David Grier, Jack Lawrence, Earl Scruggs, Jerry Sutton, and Russ Barenberg. He acknowledges being able to get to all those on his list of influences but one, Mark O'Connor. Most of the featured tunes are considered hoedowns, and a waltz like Give Me The Roses provides nice contrast. A rag might have given some added diversity to the project. However, selections like The Old Spinning Wheel and Carroll County Blues do the trick. Not Too Far From The Tree is a welcome presentation that defines flatpicked guitar, an art form of virtuoso technique and agility. Sutton and his partners prove a lot about the instrument. First, its incredible versatility provides the potential for a wide range of extraordinary and powerful sound. Second, the simplicity found in a stellar duo with a total of only 12 strings can also impart many complexities in mood and sentiment. However, it's this very simplicity found in straightforward melody lines and fiery improvisations that give this album its unique flair. This project makes a lot of musical sense, and the players successfully draw some new feelings out of the older, more familiar tunes. These tunes are still considered primarily as fiddle tunes, but Bryan Sutton, a leading player and purveyor of guitar, is staking a solid claim on them for his instrument. (Joe Ross, staff writer, Bluegrass Now) Flatpicking nirvana! When Bryan Sutton -- whose rippling lines and fat tones are among the finest to emerge from a steel-string's soundhole -- decided to record a series of duets with those who helped shape his playing, he grabbed a portable recording rig and visited a bevy of the world's top pickers. The result is Not Too Far from the Tree -- an amazing collection of 6-string conversations, as well as a breathtaking overview of the flatpicker's art. Sutton's musical partners include both trailblazers and modern masters: crosspicking pioneer George Shuffler, Norman Blake, Dan Crary, bluegrass legend Earl Scruggs, Jack Lawrence, David Grier, flat-top sensei Doc Watson, Russ Barenberg, Ricky Skaggs, Dobro king Jerry Douglas, and Tony Rice. As an added bonus, Sutton turns in a beautiful piece with his first guitar teacher -- his father -- recorded in the living room where the young Sutton once practiced. In each duet, the guitars are recorded simply and naturally, allowing us to focus on each picker's unique style, and also dig the sonic differences between the various Martin, Taylor, Bourgeois, Gallagher, Gibson, and Huss & Dalton dreadnoughts (which are all detailed in the liner notes). Packed with red-hot versions of traditional tunes, Not Too Far from the Tree belongs in every flatpicker's collection, and is destined to become a classic. This is just a superb album.Bryan playing with all of the flatpicking greats (except for Clarence White, of course).The songs are played with drive and invention - each one a conversation between two artists.The opening cut - Forked Deer - makes me smile whenever I hear it. A 'desert island' disk for anyone who's into bluegrass, flatpicking or acoustic music... See all 8 customer reviews...

  • Bryan Sutton Reveals New Depth with Fourth Sugar Hill Release, Into My Own
    BRYAN SUTTON REVEALS NEW DEPTH WITH FOURTH SUGAR HILL RELEASE, INTO MY OWN Solo Record From Bluegrass Guitar Master Due April 29th Nashville, Tenn. (January 27, 2014) –Bryan Sutton returns to Sugar Hill Records with his fourth solo release, Into My Own, available April 29, 2014. “The goal,” Bryan Sutton says, “was to try to make a record that only I could make.” Indeed, even a cursory listen is enough to establish that Into My Own, his fourth album for Sugar Hill Records, fulfills that goal—and does so in a way that reflects not only the instrumental virtuosity that his admirers have come to expect, but also the spirit and sensibilities of a musician intent on challenging himself to continuously grow in every way. For those who think of him as just one of the best acoustic guitarists around, Into My Own will come as an unexpected revelation, while for those who’ve been following his evolution at least since 2009’s Almost Live, it deserves welcome as the culmination of a remarkable musical growth spurt—rich, varied, and, just as he says, a record that only he could make. For what Into My Own does for the first time is present Bryan Sutton, not so much on his own (though there’s a bit of that too), but as an artist who’s worked his way into a musical place that’s all his own, and not just as a phenomenal guitarist, but as a singer and songwriter. Featured alongside Bryan Sutton are some of the best pickers in the genre, also true friends and collaborators; Bill Frisell joins in for “Frissell’s Rag” while Noam Pikelny, Sam Bush, Ronnie McCoury, Stuart Duncan and more stop in to play a few.

  • Hit & Run Bio 2014
    2009 International Bluegrass Music Association "Recorded Event of the Year" Winner (Rebecca Frazier, Daughters of Bluegrass) 2006 First woman on cover of Flatpicking Guitar Magazine (Rebecca Frazier) 2005 International Bluegrass Music Association Showcase Artist First Place, 2005 SPBGMA International Band Championship (Nashville, TN) First Place, 2003 Telluride Bluegrass Festival Band Contest (Telluride, CO) First Place, 2002 Rockygrass Band Contest (Lyons, CO) Rebecca Frazier gained notoriety as the first woman on the cover of Flatpicking Guitar Magazine. With over a decade of touring under her belt, Frazier has returned to the national stage with her flatpicking and songwriting showcase, “When We Fall,” and her new affiliation with Compass Records. In 2013, Rebecca Frazier and Hit & Run have continued to delight audiences across the country with the “handspun yet motor-driven” music that earned Hit & Run their reputation as “one of the tightest groups performing.” They are the only band to win the top triumvirate of major bluegrass band contests at the Telluride, Rockygrass, and SPBGMA Festival Band Championships. Hit & Run formed in late 2001 with the mutual desire to play “authentic yet modern” bluegrass. They quickly launched themselves as a successful touring act out of Colorado, gracing stages of prestigious festivals and venues in 36 states and Canada and eventually migrating to Nashville in 2007 with two studio albums under their belts. Since 2002, Hit & Run has shared stages with the likes of Jimmy Martin, Hot Rize, Rhonda Vincent, Jerry Douglas, Sam Bush, Del McCoury, David Grisman, Ricky Skaggs, Creedence Clearwater Revisited, G. Love & Special Sauce, Galactic, Medeski Martin & Wood, and many other recognized acts bluegrass and popular music.

  • Bluegrass Ensembles
    The Colorado College Music Department presents Bluegrass Ensembles Keith Reed, director December 13, 2012 7:30 PM Packard Hall Please turn off all electronic devices in Packard Hall Group 1 Andy Allen-Fahlander Andy has been playing guitar for 10 years, mostly in the jazz and improvisational rock tradition. Last year while studying music at Colorado College, he had a fateful encounter with the music of Tony Rice and Bill Monroe that inspired him to dive headfirst into the world of bluegrass, picking up bluegrass guitar as well as the mandolin. He aspires to let distinctive stylistic aspects of his two instruments of choice flow together, importing tremolo picking into guitar and blues- style bends into his mandolin playing. Niels Davis Niels is a guitar player from Vermont. He started out playing fingerstyle blues and folk, and began playing bluegrass in his first year at Colorado College. His influences include Norman Blake, Clarence White, Bryan Sutton and whoever is playing hard at open-mic night. When he’s not playing music he likes to climb and spend time outside. He plays horrible banjo and would like to learn to play the mandolin. Makenna Drake A Colorado native, Makenna Drake grew up in a musical family and experimented with many instruments before picking up the fiddle. She began playing classical music at a young age and earned pocket money playing standard tunes on the local pedestrian mall. After a long hiatus in playing, Makenna rediscovered the violin through fiddle music, arising from a long-standing family tradition of attending the bluegrass academies and festivals in Lyons, Colorado.

Tehtävänä oli luoda uutta ja monipuolista kitaransoiton opetusmate- riaalia, joka avaa bluegrassissa käytettäviä soittotekniikoita ja harmonisia ilmiöitä. Työn tavoitteita olivat soittotaidon kehittäminen, musiikin analysointitaitojen edistäminen ja pedagogisten valmiuksien kartuttaminen oppimateriaalin suunnittelemisessa ja tuottami- sessa. Tavoitteisiin kuului myös laajemman ymmärryksen saaminen bluegrass-musiikista kitaran näkökulmasta.
