Michael Cleveland & Flamekeeper, one of the finest bluegrass acts in the current scene, is set to perform on October 15th, 2022 at the Bluegrass Music Museum in Owensboro, Kentucky.
Award-winning fiddler Michael Clevelandis a 2020 GRAMMY winner and 12-time winner of the International Bluegrass Music Association’s Fiddle Performer of the Year award, Mike and his talented band will present a program of tight vocal trios and duos, dazzling instrumentals, and fiddle-and-banjo duets that echo the first-generation stars of bluegrass.
The show is rounded out with Mike’s dry wit and the band’s sense of fun. Considered one of the leading bluegrass fiddlers of his generation, Mike picked up a fiddle at age four, and his talent was recognized early. In 1993 he was chosen to be part of the Bluegrass Youth All Stars. Later that year Mike made his Grand Ole Opry debut as a guest of Alison Krauss.
His list of guest appearances over the years is a who’s who of bluegrass legends including Bill Monroe, Jim and Jesse, and Ralph Stanley.
