Laurie Lewis & The Right Hands

“I’ve always thought that bluegrass was basically a singer-songwriter with string band,” Laurie Lewis says. “I like to think that I fit that description and trajectory of the music rather well.” The internationally renowned, Grammy Award-winning musician has performed and recorded since 1986 with her musical partner, mandolinist Tom Rozum, her bluegrass band the Right Hands, and guitarist Nina Gerber. A recent project, and Laurie Lewis, is a series of duets with old friends (Kathy Kallick, Tom Rozum, Craig Smith, Mike Marshall, Nina Gerber, Barbara Higbie, and Todd Phillips), and the newest generation of acoustic standouts (Molly Tuttle, Leah Wollenberg and Tatiana Hargreaves). Twice voted “Female Vocalist of the Year” by the International Bluegrass Music Association, Laurie has won the respect and admiration of her peers.
