Grammy-winning musician, Grammy-nominated producer and visionary banjo virtuoso Alison Brown is one of the most multi-faceted minds in roots music.
Although Alison began her musical career as a teenager in the Southern California Bluegrass scene, she has earned her reputation as one of today’s most forward-thinking and innovative banjo players. Taking her instrument far beyond its Appalachian roots, Alison blends Bluegrass and jazz influences into a sonic tapestry that has earned her widespread praise and recognition. Her masterful skill and creativity have earned her acclaim from national tastemakers including The Wall Street Journal, CBS Sunday Morning, NPR and USA Today.
Recognized with honors including the UCA Fellowship in Music and the Distinguished Achievement Award from the International Bluegrass Music Association, Brown was inducted into the American Banjo Museum Hall of Fame in 2019. She is also the founder of Compass Records and co-chair of the coveted Steve Martin Banjo Prize.
