California Bluegrass Reunion

California Bluegrass Reunion with Bill Evans, Darol Anger, John Reischman, Jim Nunally, Sharon Gilchrist and Chad Manning

Since 2012, banjo player Bill Evans has brought together a stellar collection of banjo players from all over the world, paired these players with an all-star California-based band, and presented his annual California Banjo Extravaganza throughout the northern part of the state. This year, Bill is mixing up the format with a one-time-only gathering of veteran bluegrass and new acoustic musicians with strong California connections, featuring legendary fiddler Darol Anger. Calling this year’s tour the California Bluegrass Reunion, the band also features John Reischman on mandolin; Jim Nunally on guitar; Sharon Gilchrist on bass and mandolin and Chad Manning on fiddle. The musicians of the California Bluegrass Reunion have made music together in different combinations for decades and this tour will feature many new original compositions.
