About this Event
Mr Sun – the wildly adventurous string band featuring Duluth native Joe K. Walsh on mandolin - will stage a reinterpretation of Duke Ellington’s arrangement of the Nutcracker Suite in this special holiday performance at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 11.
The acoustic supergroup Mr. Sun features four great talents. Renowned fiddler Darol Anger, professor emeritus at Berklee College of Music, has worked with David Grisman and Mike Marshall and helped found the Turtle Island Quartet, Psychograss, and Republic of Strings. Walsh has spent four years with the award-winning bluegrass act the Gibson Brothers and teaches at Berklee College. All-around guitar genius Grant Gordy is a former member of David Grisman’s band; and the phenomenal Scots bassist Aidan O’Donnell has backed harpist Maeve Gilchrist and countless modern jazz heroes.
