Free, but donations gladly accepted to help cover costs Bio WB Reid has been playing all kinds of music with all kinds of folks throughout the West Coast and points East for over 35 years. He is known as a fine singer, guitarist, fiddler, and also for his work on banjo-guitar and banjo-mandolin. He has also taught music in a variety of settings from individual lessons to major workshops throughout most of his career and continues to do so. WB’s music crosses many boundaries and he’s been sought after by top groups in several traditions and across several generations. He’s played for many years with Seattle’s premier traditional New England contra dance band, The Rhythm Rollers which includes the great New England piano player Bob McQuillen whenever he’s in town. WB was the fiddler with Seattle’s old-time band, The Tallboys, whose members are roughly the same age as his children. Just prior to that, WB was the principal accompanist for the legendary Alabama fiddler Lee Stripling until his death in 2009. He also plays regularly with a fine jug band, The Todalo Shakers, with his pals Eric and Suzy Thompson and Frannie Leopold, and less frequently with The Carolina Jug Stompers which includes original Holy Modal Rounder Luke Faust. Every year at Fiddle Tunes, WB finds himself in demand as an accompanist for faculty members in musical styles ranging from old-time to Mexican to celtic to New England, including backing up Tom Paley, Laura Risk, Jose Moreno, Mac Benford, Lee Stripling, Bob McQuillen, the Canote Brothers, and many more. At other events he’s accompanied Debby McClatchy, Phil & Vivian Williams, Alan Jabbour, Mark Graham, Mark Rubin, and many others. He’s made many CDs of his own with his wife, Bonnie Zahnow, and with the Canote Brothers and Mark Rubin, and with several other bands. In addition, he’s assisted on recordings by Cathie Whitesides, Debby McClatchy, Pharis and Jason Romero, and others. This is one of many events happening in the Bellingham Folk Festival, January 22-25.
