American Patchwork Quartet (APQ) weaves timeless American folk songs with jazz sophistication, country twang, West African rhythm, and East Asian flair. Led by multi-GRAMMY® winner Clay Ross—founder of the acclaimed Gullah group Ranky Tanky—APQ unites world-class musicians Falguni Shah, Moto Fukushima, and Clarence Penn in a bold musical tapestry.
Recently nominated for Best Folk Album at the 67th GRAMMY® Awards, APQ embodies unity in diversity—transforming America’s cultural mosaic into sound. Each song is a reflection of shared dreams and histories, stitching together the joys, sorrows, and hopes of a nation. Like a cherished quilt, APQ’s music wraps listeners in warmth, beauty, and belonging.
