We're thrilled that our friend Brittany Haas will be joining us as a very special guest at the Freight & Salvage, Berkeley, CA on Jan. 3rd! Tickets are on sale online at the Freight & Salvage website: http://thefreight.org/tuttles-aj-lee-0 Brittany Haas is one of the world's finest fiddlers and member of Crooked Still. Jack Tuttle was Brittany's first fiddle teacher, which makes this evening a special, musical reunion. Brittany has performed internationally with top musicians, including Steve Martin's band on Saturday Night Live, David Letterman, and on his Grammy-winning CD.
"Catch the next generation of bluegrass masters when The Tuttles with AJ Lee take the stage at the Freight. The Northern California Bluegrass Society has named them Best Bluegrass Band the last two years in a row, as well as naming Molly Tuttle the Best Guitarist, Michael Tuttle the Best Mandolin Player, and Jack Tuttle the Best Fiddler. Oh, and Best Female Vocalist? That would be AJ in 2010 and 2011, Molly in 2012. The point is, these folks can sing and play bluegrass with skill and spirit far beyond their years – except for Jack. His years are already up there with his spirit and skill. He’s the father of Molly, Michael, and Sullivan, the band’s bass player, and he gave the kids their first music lessons in their living room in Palo Alto, passing along what he learned as a member of the original Tuttle Family Band that his father Gerald started many decades ago on the family’s farm in Illinois." -- Freight & Salvage Coffee House
The Tuttles with AJ Lee will also perform in Santa Cruz County at Don Quixote's in Felton -- Sunday, January 6, at 1pm, and on KPIG at 10am that same day.
