PERFORMER SPOTLIGHT – SAM GRISMAN PROJECT

The music that Sam Grisman heard his father David Grisman and Jerry Garcia make in the early ’90s (in the house Sam grew up in) is not only some of the most timeless acoustic music ever recorded, it also triggers his oldest and fondest musical memories. 

Sam’s aim in starting Sam Grisman Project is to build a container where he and his friends can showcase their genuine love and appreciation for the legacy of Dawg and Jerry’s music, the impact it has made on their own individual musical voices, and also to showcase the original music that their squad has to offer the world.

“It’s an absolute treat to travel the country with the people I care the most about, and to make great music and memories and friends everywhere we go.” – Sam Grisman, as told to Lindsey Terrell, The Bluegrass Situation

Join us for a lesson in love when Sam and his friends take the Strawberry Stage on Friday, May 23rd! Learn and listen here.
