Sara Milonovich with Greg Anderson

Friday, November 12th   8:00 pm

Sara Milonovich with Greg Anderson
Singer, songwriter and fiddler Sara Milonovich returns to the Playhouse with her longtime musical partner guitarist Greg Anderson for an intimate evening of music with material from her new release. Milonovich cut her teeth as a sought-after side person in the bluegrass, folk, rock, americana, and celtic music worlds, and has performed and recorded throughout North and South America, Europe and beyond. She was among the last generations to learn traditional music as it was passed down firsthand, from the grange halls and lumber camps of the North Country to the pubs of NYC. Growing up on a working farm in rural upstate New York, she began playing when she was four, and by nine was leading her own band (around the same time she learned to drive a tractor.) After a collection of awards for fiddling, singing, and composing, she left school at sixteen to hit the road with bluegrass band The McKrells. A diverse trajectory led her from there through a busy career as an accompanist and collaborator with such artists as Richard Shindell, Pete Seeger (including on his Grammy-winning At 89 album), Eliza Gilkyson, Jim Gaudet and the Railroad Boys, and NY stringband Mountain Quickstep, among others. In 2011, Sara toured Kosovo, Bulgaria, Moldova, and Turkey as part of The Rhythm Road: American Music Abroad, a cultural diplomatic program administered by Jazz At Lincoln Center and the US State Department. In 2016 she founded Rootstock (www.rootstockfest.org), a nonprofit music festival dedicated to supporting the next generation of farmers in the Northeast.

“A ‘mix of bluegrass and a twinge of political/punk attitude and lyrics…’” – The Corner

“…what Nashville would sound like if it was a just bit smarter…” – Daily Freeman

“Simply out of this world.” – Folkscene
