Description
'Curios' is the second album from the San Francisco based instrumental duo Scroggins & Rose. Building on the foundation laid by roots music innovators such as Bela Fleck, David Grisman, Mike Marshall, and Darol Anger, 'Curios' explores the full sonic range of possibilities for the duo. Master instrumentalists Tristan Scroggins and Alisa Rose create an inviting musical atmosphere with their thoughtful, conversational arrangements and startling dynamic and emotional range.
The album's original tunes draw on bluegrass's compact song structures, pop songs' dramatic arc, and Bach's two part Inventions for keyboard, which follow a linear melodic journey of two contrasting voices from beginning to end. Combining two lifetimes of commitment to craft, technique, and stylistic integrity, Scroggins, a mandolinist and second generation bluegrass virtuoso, and Rose, a Grammy-nominated violinist, create creative contemporary roots music with the expression and detail of classical music, the ebullient drive of fiddle music, and the thrilling virtuosity of both traditions.
