The Royal Conservatory of Music | Punch Brothers (sold out)

“Punch Brothers take bluegrass to its next evolutionary stage, drawing equal inspiration from the brain and the heart.” (Washington Post) Band members Chris Thile (mandolin), Gabe Witcher (fiddle/violin), Noam Pikelny (banjo), Chris Eldridge (guitar), and Paul Kowert (bass), released their latest album, Hell on Church Street, in January 2022. Hell on Church Street is a re-imagining of Tony Rice’s 1983 album Church Street Blues, a solo folk reinterpretation of classic songs. The Punch Brothers say that “no record (or musician) has had a greater impact on us, and we felt compelled to cover it in its entirety, with the objective of interacting with it in the same spirit of respect-fueled adventure that Tony brought to each of its pre-existing songs.”
