THE PETER ROWAN & TONY RICE QUARTEThttp://www.peter-rowan.com/

Initially inspired by the possibilities and flexibility inherent in classic bluegrass, Peter Rowan and Tony Rice have helped reinvent American roots music. Rowan’s aching vocals and poignant, poetic songs are elevated by Rice’s elegantly fleet flat-picking, resulting in a sound that bares distinct traces of each man’s prior accomplishments, yet achieving a synthesis all its own.

Roland has been featured as part of a Mozart duo for violin and viola with violist Kyle Armbrust (of the Knights Chamber Ensemble) in April 2008 at the Chandler Music Hall in Randolph, a week-long tour with the Vermont Symphony Orchestra as a guest soloist, and an appearance with Yonder Mountain String Band at Higher Ground in Burlington. In June 2007, NPR’s All Things Considered aired a radio profile on Roland. He makes guest appearances with the Mud City Ramblers, Bob Degree and the Bluegrass Storm, Tammy Fletcher’s Mountain Girl, and the WLVB Radio Rangers. Roland is also a member of Fiddleheads, and was a recipient of Young Tradition Concert awards for 3 consecutive years. He received a Vermont Maple Festival achievement award in April 2008. He lives in Johnson with his parents, brother, and sister.
