Tony Trischka

Friday, May 02, 2008

Tony Trischka says he didn’t choose to play the banjo -- it chose him. But during his 40-year career, he’s inspired a generation of bluegrass musicians to pick up the instrument. On his Grammy nominated CD "Double Banjo Bluegrass Spectacular," he collaborates with banjoists ranging from Bela Fleck to comedian Steve Martin. Trischka joins us for an in-studio performance.
