 | | Featuring Rob Burger on accordion, piano, pump organ, harmonica and marxophone, Carla Kihlstedt on violin and viola, and Mark Orton on guitar, dobro, and tenor banjo, Tin Hat Trio is an acoustic chamber group that combines intriguing and challenging compositions with a striking command of tone and texture, and a playfully spontaneous approach to improvisation. |
 | | Although continuing to pursue numerous individual projects, Tin Hat Trio came together in San Francisco in 1996 and created a style that blends tango, bluegrass, contemporary classical, and Eastern European folk traditions with an avant-garde edge. |
 | | The remarkable empathy evident in the Trio's playing is rooted in a long personal history. |
