Wed 11/9 @ 8PM

Boston-based bluegrass ensemble Molsky’s Mountain Drifters is a new collaboration featuring three musicians, each of whom has a formidable reputation of their own. Fiddler Bruce Molsky, Visiting Scholar in the American Roots Program at Berklee College of Music, has put out several albums of his own, worked with a variety of artists including guitarist Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits and legendry dobro player Jerry Douglas and been nominated for a Grammy.

Banjo player Allison de Groot has performed at major festivals in the U.S., Canada and Europe with her groups the Goodbye Girls and Oh My Darling. And guitarist Stash Wyslouch made the transition from heavy metal to bluegrass and roots music, bringing his virtuoso chops with him.

The group has just released its first album, and it’s on the road to share the music with audiences. They’ll be at Cuyahoga Valley National Park’s Happy Days Lodge as part of the Heritage series concerts. Tickets are $20, $15 for CVNP Conservancy members, and $5 for kids age 3-12.
