About Butch Baldassari

Butch Baldassari has been considered one of the rising stars of bluegrass mandolin since the release of his first album "What's Doin'" (Cactus Records). His work with Weary Hearts delighted fans at festivals and club dates throughout the country, and the groups' 1989 Flying Fish album was released to great critical acclaim. He has since released "Old Town," a solo album of bluegrass instrumentals on Rebel Records and "Evergreen," a collection of traditional Christmas music played on several instruments in the mandolin family. Butch is currently a columnist for Bluegrass Now Magazine and the leader of the Nashville Mandolin Ensemble. His two-video set, “You Can Play Bluegrass Mandolin,” has been one of Homespun’s most popular instructional products.
