'The Park' presents Ethan Setiawan & Fine Ground with opening act, Alan Epstein, live on December 5th, 2024!**National Mandolin Championship Winner**
-----
Ethan Setiawan & Fine Ground is visually a bluegrass band, born of a yearning to return to bluegrass roots and imbued with original tunes and quality songwriting. Named “creative and virtuosic” by WBUR Boston, mandolinist Ethan Setiawan’s path has wended its way through traditional bluegrass, to Bach partitas, to free jazz. He has won both the National Mandolin Championship and the RockyGrass Mandolin Championship. In creating Fine Ground, Ethan called on some of his favorite musicians in the Northeastern bluegrass community: BB Bowness on banjo, Julian Pinelli on fiddle, Alex Rubin on guitar, and Brittany Karlson on bass. The band gets at the heart of bluegrass while simultaneously infusing it with their own disparate musical influences.
“....creative and virtuosic.” - WBUR
“...one of the most formidable mandolinists of his generation.” - The Bluegrass Situation

Alan Epstein:
Alan Epstein has been playing music since his college days in the early 1970’s, when his father bought him his first mandolin. Originally from Pittsburgh, Pa, and since 2008 living in Upstate NY, Alan worked on construction projects all his career, living in various parts of the country, but always finding time to play and teach bluegrass music on the side as a hobby. All of that changed in February of this year, when he played his first solo gig at The Rockhill Bakehouse here in Glens Falls, blending a mix of bluegrass vocals, with his mandolin playing and telling stories along the way. Since February’s gig Alan has decided to make music his profession, and has recorded and released a bluegrass single A Year Ago Today featuring Aaron Ramsey on guitar and Tim O’Brien on harmony vocals, spent the summer as an Official Busker in the village of Lake George, became a regular music volunteer at the Glens Falls Hospital and in October traveled to France to play a few gigs and teach at the Bluegrass Nature camp.
