Kentucky Music. Nikos Pappas and Seth Fulsom
Description
Hailing from Lexington, Kentucky, Nikos Pappas is a walking encyclopedia of fiddle tunes and their history. He's also a champion fiddler who has taken home multiple awards, and a member of the great Kentucky stringband The Red State Ramblers. In this performance he collaborates with Seth Folsom, a musician and world-class banjo maker from Louisville. Folsom is also a master performer on the instrument, being able to provide solid backup for fiddle players in the old-time frailing style as well as play a wonderful finger style similar to that of Charlie Poole. Folsom can be heard with some of the finest old-time bands, from Louisville's The JawBones to California's The Crooked Jades. Hosted by Jesse Wells of the Kentucky Center for Traditional Music at Morehead State University.
