  • Description

    Featuring special guests, Dennis Crouch, Jerry Douglas, Stuart Duncan, Viktor Krauss and Kenny Malone. Russ Barenberg is one of the most melodic instrumentalists in contemporary bluegrass. Best known for his Clarence White-style flatpicking, he often uses his other three fingers to enhance rhythm and melody and create a more textural sensitivity. A former member of Country Cooking, Heartlands, Fiddle Fever, and Laughing Hands, Barenberg has remained active since moving to Nashville in 1986.

    Inspired by Doc Watson and Mississippi John Hurt, Barenberg began playing guitar at the age of 13. Since moving to Nashville he has worked extensively with dobro player and record producer Jerry Douglas.

    In addition to accompanying Irish vocalist Maura O'Connell, the two musicians recorded a trio album, Skip, Hop & Wobble, with upright bassist Edgar Meyer. As a session player, Barenberg has recorded on numerous demo tapes for Nashville publishing companies and appeared on albums by Béla Fleck, Hazel Dickens, Mel Tillis, and Randy Travis.
    Barenberg has also been featured on instructional tapes, including How to Play Bluegrass Guitar and Teach Yourself Bluegrass Guitar, released by Homespun Tapes and Videos.
