Duke Family Performance Hall - Davidson College

It is our great honor to be able to host the incomparable Tim O’Brien in a year where he is celebrating 50 years as a performing musician. A multi-instrumentalist (guitar, fiddle, mandolin, and banjo) he has performed with a very long list of traditional musicians, especially in Nashville, where he has lived since 1996. The International Bluegrass Music Association recognized him as best male vocalist in 1993 and 2006, and awarded him song of the year in 2006. He will be performing with his wife, Jan Fabricius, with whom he has been performing for nearly a decade. He is a Traditional Music treasure, one of the most deeply loved and respected traditional musicians of our time.
