Mike Compton in concert

Tuesday, July 3rd 8:00 pm

Giving all you Bluegrass fans and mandolin enthusiasts a lot of time to plan on attending this show, because the demand will be high.

A Protege of Bill Monroe and an expert on Monroe's iconic mandolin style, Mike is a Grammy award winner and perhaps best known as the featured mandolin player on the "Oh, Brother Where Art Thou" movie and soundtrack. He also performed on the "Down From The Mountain Tour", as well as the "Cold Mountain Tour".

Mike has made a powerful mark in the bluegrass and old-time music circles as one of the most influential mandolin players in the world. Mike plays with the Nashville Bluegrass Band (winners of two Grammy Awards, two Entertainer of the Year honors from IBMA, and four wins as IMBA's Vocal Group of the Year) and has collaborated with such diverse notables as John Hartford, Ralph Stanley, David Grier, Sting, Elvis Costello, and T-Bone Burnett. Mike treasures his memories of a friendship with his mentor, Bill Monroe, and has "wholeheartedly concentrated on the art of Bill Monroe and the furtherance of his musical legacy." Mike's new solo CD, Rotten Taters, was recorded in Australia this past summer while on a solo tour.

This event is being held at: New Expression Music, 4434 30th St. San Diego (North Park).
