Brittany Haas

from Conversations with Musicians, with Leah Roseman

Brittany Haas is widely regarded as one of the most influential fiddlers of her generation. In this wide-ranging conversation you’ll be hearing about her early career, touring with Darol Anger at age 14, the bands Croooked Still, Hawktail and Punch Brothers with Chris Thile. She reflected on the challenges and thrill of a touring life, the Nashville scene, her teaching through Artistworks, and dynamics of being a woman in Bluegrass. We talked about mentors Bruce Molsky and Tony Trishka, her time at Princeton studying Evolutionary Biology, and the need for self-care and boundaries.  We are featuring music from several of her albums, including her recent projects with sister Natalie and the Swedish musician Lena Jonsson.  Like all my episodes, you can also watch this on my YouTube channel or listen to the podcast on all the podcast platforms, and I’ve also linked the transcript to my website: https://www.leahroseman.com/episodes/brittany-haas See below for other suggested episodes, linked for your convenience, along with links for newsletter and support pages!   Brittany Haas website Hawktail The Snake with Lena Jonsson Haas with sister Natalie Impromptu Sessions (banjo album) Brittany Haas debut album the Punch Brothers website (Energy Curfew Music hour podcast)  I’m sure that you’ll enjoy my conversations  with Adam Hurt Janie Rothfield  Joe K.
