JB and the Cardineau Sin

Sobre el evento

JB and Cardineau Sin is a bluegrass group that mines in the fertile grounds of traditional bluegrass, early country and old time mountain music. Franco-American Jean-Baptiste's mandolin playing and musical style is influenced by the early innovators Bill Monroe and notably by his friend and former mentor Frank Wakefield. This Boston-based bandcarries the torch of a bygone tradition with hardcore numbers, powerful three-part harmonies, gospels and their own original music.On their 2026 tour of Ireland and the UK, the trio will feature Canadian pickers Tim Loten on banjo and Jono Townsend on guitar. In his final year at Berklee College of Music and with a debut record coming out in the Spring of 2025, Jean-Baptiste was the winner of PSB Records' Song's for Social Change contest, as well as first place in mandolin at the 2025 Freshgrass Awards. The record highlights his unique mandolin playing as well as his original songwriting style.
