Béla Fleck and Abigail Washburn

Béla Fleck, a fifteen-time Grammy winner, has devoted time away from his standard-setting ensemble Béla Fleck and the Flecktones to a staggeringly broad array of musical experiments, from writing a concerto for the Nashville Symphony to exploring the banjo?s African roots to jazz duos with Chick Corea, while Abigail Washburn has drawn critical acclaim for her solo albums, done fascinating work in folk musical diplomacy in China, presented an original theatrical production, contributed to singular side groups Uncle Earl and The Wu-Force and become quite a live draw in her own right, the two of them decided they were ready to craft their debut album as a duo, Béla Fleck & Abigail Washburn. There?s no denying that theirs is a one-of-a-kind pairing, with one-of-a-kind possibilities.
