Michael Prewitt

We are thrilled to announce that we have secured the brilliant Michael Prewitt (USA) to play at the Ropemakers
Hailing from the hills of East Kentucky, Michael Prewitt, known for his creative and hard-driving approach to the mandolin over the last few years with Grammy-nominated and IBMA award-winning bluegrass band Special Consensus, has journeyed all around the world and now come home, releasing a debut vocal album of original songwriting, titled Something He Can Handle.
On this album, which Bluegrass Today termed “a brilliant effort,” he showcases his fresh, inventive take on bluegrass songwriting. In his live shows, these original songs are paired with many detours onto the bluegrass back roads of forgotten B-sides, respectful covers, and old fiddle tunes, forming a unique blend of thoughtful lyricism and hot picking that has been enthusiastically received by audiences at dive bars, festivals, rock clubs, theaters, listening
rooms, and breweries across the USA, Canada, and Europe.
