Event Description
The grand master of the mandolin returns to Victoria with his acclaimed band The Jaybirds for a special night of bluegrass and old-time music in the spirit of the Christmas season. John Reischman has dazzled audiences across the globe with dozens of mesmerizing original compositions played with power, taste and gorgeous tone on his rare and mighty 1924 “Lloyd Loar” Gibson mandolin. John has collected a Grammy award and three Juno nominations for his outstanding recording output, including seven Jaybird albums, four solo instrumental albums, and many other projects and sessions including with the legendary Tony Rice Unit. This annual concert is often a sellout. A portion of the proceeds goes to Our Place Society, which supports Victoria's most vulnerable populations.
With John Reischman (mandolin), Trisha Gagnon (bass), Nick Hornbuckle (banjo), Patrick Sauber (guitar), and Patrick M'Gonigle (fiddle).
