Bruce Molsky

4545 N Lincoln Ave · The Myron R. Szold Music & Dance Hall · 773.728.6000


Enjoy an intimate, solo performance with "one of America's premier fiddling talents" (Mother Jones) and twice Grammy-nominated artist on fiddle, banjo, guitar, and song, Bruce Molsky. Molsky has dug into the deepest reaches of mountain music, while growing his own unique voice. He holds a stage as few other musicians can. His skill at performing a deep and varied repertoire and a reverence for the past, combined with a relaxed, conversational wit, draws listeners in as if they were sitting on the front porch of Carnegie Hall.

Molsky was recently named by Berklee College of Music as its Visiting Scholar in the American Roots Music Program. Through his work there, he is a mentor, friend, and inspiration for the next generation of roots musicians.

"Bruce Molsky is one of those great players who 'gets it': has all the links to the past but is happy not to be chained to it" - Mark Knopfler

"Molsky is easily one of the nation's most talented fiddlers…he transports you…geographically, historically, and most of all emotionally" - Mother Jones

"It is no exaggeration to say that Bruce Molsky is one of the greatest American fiddlers of all time. His playing is mesmerizing and transporting, and best experienced live" - WBUR (Boston NPR)

"An absolute master" - No Depression
