Since forming a musical partnership in 1986, when Tom first joined Laurie’s acclaimed band, Grant Street, Laurie Lewis and Tom Rozum have recorded 12 albums and performed around the globe. These Grammy-nominated artists (for their 1995 album The Oak and the Laurel) are widely regarded as among the leading lights of modern bluegrass.
The Bee Eaters trace their roots back to musical traditions as diverse as bluegrass, Celtic, jazz and old-time.
While today’s new breed often produces an amalgamation of sounds and
styles based on a distant view, the Bee Eaters were raised embedded in
these traditions… raised to mold, meld, shape them and carry them
forward, leaving their own indelible marks in the
process. Brother-sister duo Tristan and Tashina Clarridge, long known
and lauded by those steeped in the American fiddle tradition, are joined
by hammer dulcimer wizard Simon Chrisman.For more information visit http://www.twistedoak.com/lewis
