Featuring
Mike Block, cello/vocals
Joe K. Walsh, mandolin/vocals
Zachariah Hickman, bass/vocals
Mike Block Trio is led by Mike Block, a cellist, singer, composer, and member of Yo-Yo Ma’s Silk Road Ensemble, who has been hailed by Gramophone Magazine as “one of the bravest, most intriguing musicians on the American fusion scene.” Block is teamed with equally virtuosic partners Joe K. Walsh, a bluegrass mandolin player, and bassist Zachariah Hickman. The trio fertilizes American roots and Appalachian folk music with contemporary and international influences, bringing an exciting and personal perspective to the acoustic music scene. Their program includes original compositions, American tunes and pieces from "Hope on the Hill," Mike Block's new suite inspired by the personal life and artistic philosophy of Frank Lloyd Wright.
