Last night at the Walker Theatre in Chattanooga was 🔥 The Jason Carter Band opened for Leftover Salmon and absolutely set the tone for the night. Jason — a Grammy-nominated fiddle player — led a lineup stacked with serious talent and heart. On stage: @jasoncarterfiddle @norbert.mcgettigan @brothertothewind @drivinfive @joshgoodingmandolin From the first note, they were locked in. Tight grooves. Tasteful solos. That kind of chemistry you can’t fake. 🎻 They didn’t just warm up the crowd… they left them wanting more. Chattanooga showed up, and the band delivered. If you missed it, don’t make that mistake twice. #JasonCarterBand #LeftoverSalmon #WalkerTheatre #ChattanoogaMusic #LiveBluegrass FiddleFire RuggedRootsMedia

Having a ball with @jasoncarterfiddle band out on tour with @railroadearth 🪕🔥 I first saw Railroad around 2008 at the Barrymore Theatre in Madison, WI and then went to see them every chance I got for a few years after that. I was and am a big fan. Thanks to the band for having me sit in last night. 🎥 @jasoncarterfiddle #bluegrass #banjo #jamgrass #railroadearth

Been on a @tonyfurtado5 kick lately. This tune, Greenheart, is in kind of a wild tuning - b B F# B D#. One of my former students @banjoboyk introduced me to it in a lesson a couple years back. We looked at some of the trickier parts together, but I never really learned it myself. It started playing on shuffle the other day, and has been stuck in my head ever since. Also, yes, I realized the screw was coming out of my 5th string tuner right after filming! #bluegrass #banjo #banjomusic
