I stepped off-stage in London to the news that As We Speak won TWO Grammys!! It’s a privilege to be able to play music with such amazing collaborators as @zakirhq9, Edgar Meyer, and @chaurasia_rakesh. Thank you to our team, @thirtytigers, and @recordingacademy. Woo hoo!!!
My Bluegrass Heart is in Europe and the UK this month! The band is incredible and includes @bryansuttond28, @sierradawnhull, @michaelclevelandfiddle, @justinmosesmusic and @markschatzmusic. Hope to see you 👋 🎟️: belafleck.com
Rhapsody in Blue is out today!! My homage to the legendary composer George Gershwin is out today, 100 years to the day that he premiered the piece at Aeolian Hall in New York City. My wish is that Gershwin might have loved this music, that he might have thought, “Hmmm, this is not what I expected, but the musicians certainly brought something different to it.” Listen now, and grab yourself a copy!
