2022 Grammy Award Nominee:    
• Best Bluegrass Album: My Bluegrass Heart

Just in case you aren't familiar with Béla Fleck, there are some who say he's the world's premier banjo player. Others claim that Béla has virtually reinvented the image and the sound of the banjo through a remarkable performing and recording   career that has taken him all over the musical map and on a range of solo projects and collaborations. If you are familiar with Béla, you know that he just loves to play the banjo, often reimagining it in unique settings.

The 15-time Grammy Award winner has been nominated in more categories than any other artist in Grammy history, and remains a powerfully creative force globally in bluegrass, jazz, classical pop, rock and world beat.

  Béla Fleck has taken banjo playing to some very unlikely places - not just bluegrass and country and 'newgrass,' but also into classical concertos, jazz and a documentary about the banjo's deep African roots, not to mention the time he toured with   throat singers from Tuva. He's also baffled the Grammy awards, winning for country and jazz in the same year and also winning in pop, world music, classical crossover and, yes, folk. That's a lot of territory for five strings.       -Jon Pareles, The New York Times     Features       Double LP Gatefold jacket     Musicians                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         Béla FleckbanjoSam BushmandolinDavid GrismanmandolinSierra HullmandolinDominick LesliemandolinChris ThilemandolinCody KilbyguitarBilly StringsguitarBryan SuttonguitarMolly TuttleguitarJerry DouglasdobroMichael ClevelandfiddleBilly ContrerasfiddleStuart DuncanfiddleAndy LeftwichfiddlePaul KowertbassRoyal MasatbassEdgar MeyerbassMark SchatzbassNoam Pikelnyguest banjoTony Trischkaguest banjo   Selections   Side A:       Vertigo (feat.
