At the IBMA 2012 World of Bluegrass conference, the ArtistWorks Academy of Bluegrass All-star players draw quite a crowd. Bryan Sutton, Missy Raines and Darol Anger play here in the booth while Tony Trischka does three interviews with noted banjo players: Kristen Scott Benson, Mark Johnson (winner of the 2012 Steve Martin Banjo Award) and Graham Sharp (Steep Canyon Rangers).  Darol Anger taught at the fiddle clinic with Aubrey Haney and Mike Cleveland.  More fun today at the IBMA.
