Item Description
Two tickets to Joe Newberry & Mike Compton on April 19th at 8:00 PM. Tickets will be on hold at the door the night of the event under your name.
Mike Compton and Joe Newberry mine one of the more neglected segments of country music history, that period during the '30s and '40s when brother duet music was transforming into bluegrass. Both masters of the bedrock instruments of old time music, they collaborate with a vision that is both modern and ageless. These two traditional music veterans love to play together... and it shows!
Mandolin Magazine calls Mike Compton a player with "a worldwide reputation as one of the modern masters of bluegrass mandolin...one of the most recognizable and respected mandolin voices anywhere". He's a Grammy and IBMA Award –winning recording artist; soloist, duo and band performer; and as passionate a teacher, preservationist, and advocate for the mandolin as you're ever likely to find.
Joe Newberry is a prizewinning banjo player, singer and songwriter. The Gibson Brothers' version of his song "Singing As We Rise," featuring guest vocalist Ricky Skaggs, won the 2012 IBMA "Gospel Recorded Performance" Award. With Eric Gibson, he shared the 2013 IBMA "Song of the Year" Award for "They Called It Music." A frequent guest on A Prairie Home Companion, Joe is a founder of the string band Big Medicine.
