Carnegie Hall presents Michael Cleveland & Jason Carter on Friday, October 2, 2026, at 7 p.m. Guests are invited to come early for the free Club Carnegie Preshow Reception from 6 – 6:45 p.m. in the Board Room located adjacent to the Hamilton Auditorium. A cash bar and snacks are available. Bluegrass powerhouses Michael Cleveland and Jason Carter—two of the most decorated fiddlers in International Bluegrass Music Association history—bring their extraordinary twin‑fiddle synergy to Carnegie Hall in a performance shaped by more than three decades of friendship and musical collaboration. First meeting as teenagers and long admired for their fiery technique, deep musicality, and reverence for tradition, the pair have spent years crossing paths on festival stages and with artists such as Del McCoury, developing an almost telepathic blend often compared to the tightness of sibling vocal harmony. Their recent duo project, Carter & Cleveland, showcases this rare connection across bluegrass standards, alt‑country gems, and lush twin‑fiddle arrangements, anchored by Carter’s warm baritone and Cleveland’s virtuosic command. With a combined 18 IBMA Fiddle Player of the Year awards and multiple GRAMMY wins and nominations, their partnership has been hailed as a landmark collaboration in modern bluegrass, offering audiences a thrilling, heartfelt celebration of tradition, innovation, and lifelong musical kinship.
