An evening of Bluegrass w/Nick Dumas, Chris Luquette & Andrew Knapp

Description

Three talented musicians are making a stop at the JACC on their Winter Tour:

NICK DUMAS - IBMA Award Winner, IBMA Momentum Award Nominee and Grammy Nominee.   Nick grew up in Brier, Washington, and was introduced to bluegrass music at a very young age by his dobro-playing grandfather. Nick became a co-founder of the popular Northwest-based bluegrass band Northern Departure. He soon became known as a highly respected mandolin player and singer in the region and co-founded another very popular bluegrass band called North Country Bluegrass, touring both regionally and nationally. In 2015, Nick was very pleased to relocate to become the new Special Consensus mandolin player. He made his Special C recording debut on the 2016 Compass Records band release "Long I Ride," which received the 2016 International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) Instrumental Recorded Performance of the Year Award for the tune "Fireball." 

 CHRIS LUQUETTE IBMA Momentum Award Winner  -  "Chris is one of the hardest working musicians originally from the Seattle music scene, a founding member of Seattle based band Northern Departure, and has found himself performing onstage with the likes of Jerry Douglas, Emmylou Harris, Bryan Sutton, Rob Ickes and Trey Hensley, The Steep Canyon Rangers, Kenny and Amanda Smith, The Boxcars, Yogi and The Yogini's and many others."

ANDREW KNAPP Andrew plays bass for the Seattle based bluegrass band “The Warren G Hardings”. They are a modern bluegrass group who grew up following the lead of the founding fathers of the progressive grass movement. Calling themselves a dance string band, they play a high-energy style based on original music written within the group. They have been a fixture at area festivals, including Northwest String Summit, North Cascades Bluegrass, Steamboat String band Jamboree, Bluegrass from the Forest, Sacajawea Bluegrass, and Bridgetown Bluegrass, and the Wintergrass International Music Festival. Andrew also has been playing bass with “Nick Dumas & Branchline” for most of their shows since the touring band started. Andrew is one of the premiere bass players out of the Pacific Northwest and always puts on a great show!
