Aaron Jonah Lewis - Fiddle And Banjo Music

I can put on a show or play in the background. Either way I will play a variety of tunes on the fiddle and banjo and if it's appropriate I may sing a few traditional songs as well. If I am playing a concert I will tell some stories about the songs I'm playing. People often respond to my music by whooping and hollering.

Aaron Jonah Lewis is a multi-instrumentalist, performer and educator. He has won awards at the Clifftop Appalachian String Band Festival, including First Place Neotraditional Band in 2008 and 2015, and at the Galax Old Fiddlers Convention, including First Place Bluegrass Fiddle in 2007, and he has performed at major festivals from the US to the UK and from Italy to Finland.

Lewis has appeared on dozens of recordings from bluegrass and old time to swing jazz, modern experimental and Turkish classical music projects. He has taught workshops at the the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama in Glasgow and at the English Folk Dance and Song Society in London. He also plays and teaches banjo, mandolin, guitar, and bass and is currently based in Detroit.

All I need is a chair and a place to play. I prefer to play acoustic but if required I can amplify. No particular requirements for lighting or staging, just let me know what the room will be like and we can figure it out from there.
