On Eli West's latest recording, Tapered Point of Stone, he joins with Andrew Marlin and Clint Mullican of Watch House, formally Mandolin Orange, on bass, and Christian Sedelmeyer of Jerry Douglas Band on fiddle. Flatpicking a 1930's Martin, West's touch is light, nimble, and beautifully fluid, without a hard edge in sight, and whether he's writing songs or instrumentals, the ideas are first-rate, combining the concision of old-time with the far-ranging improvisation of newgrass.
Hailed by CBC-Newfoundland as "one of the best mandolinists of his generation" and by Vintage Guitar Magazine as "brilliant", Portland, Maine-based mandolin player Joe K. Walsh is known for his exceptional tone and taste, and his collaborations with acoustic music luminaries including legendary fiddler Darol Anger, flatpick guitar hero Scott Nygaard, folk star Jonathan Edwards, and pop/grass darlings Joy Kills Sorrow have taken him all over the global and musical map. He's played with everyone from John Scofield to Bela Fleck to Emmylou Harris, and performed everywhere from festivals to laundromats to Nashville's Ryman Auditorium.
