When Eck Robertson made the first recording of "Sally Goodin" in 1922, the violin’s popularity as a musical instrument soared. After all, with only four strings, this little gem could not only play rhythm, but could also tow two melodies at the same time. And, it’s portable!

The new Mr Sun CD will be officially released on Compass Records on July 31!
This recording, featuring some of the most brilliant new acoustic musicians currently working, effectively wraps up just about everything Darol has learned about fiddle playing in one epic package. Darol and the phenomenal young players mandolinist Joe Walsh, guitarist Grant Gordy, and bassist Ethan Jodziewicz all make a focused and emotional statement as Mr Sun.
Meanwhile, you can buy it directly from us at our shows, or buy the CD through the mail, available right now from Darol's Website! You can just go to the Darol Anger Website Store at the link here.

ArtistWorks would like to congratulate Bryan Sutton for taking home his 8th IBMA Award for Guitar Player of the Year!
We are thrilled by Bryan's accomplishments as an artist and are proud to have him teaching flatpicking guitar to students around the world alongside the other Academy of Bluegrass all-stars: Mike Marshall, Missy Raines, Darol Anger, Andy Hall, and the incomparable Tony Trischka.
So much of what we do is spent focusing on the instruction that the Academy of Bluegrass artists are providing here -- and that's obviously our mission, but in the spirit of the now concluded 2014 IBMA awards, we'd like to focus for just a moment on the impressive careers of these amazing musicians. We're very fortunate to have them all here.
