David Bromberg on the road again!
David Bromberg is known for his eclectic style, playing bluegrass, country, folk, blues, and rock & roll equally well. His quirky, humorous lyrics have conquered many fans. The musician has played with such prominent performers, like Jerry Garcia, Jerry Jeff Walker, and Bob Dylan. He is the co-writer of the song The Holdup together with former Beatle George Harrison. Occasionally, David Bromberg performs at Wilmington's Grand Opera House.
David Bromberg is proficient on fiddle, many styles of electric and acoustic guitar, to each of them the performer lends a highly individual voice, as well as pedal steel guitar and dobro.
more Mark O'Connor, Norman Blake, David Lindley, and Ricky Skaggs are among the small number of other major performers with equal proficiency on 3 or more string instruments.
On February 27, 2007, David released his 1st new studio album since 1990. Entitled "Try Me One More Time," it was released on Appleseed Recordings. The new record includes Elizabeth Cotten's "Shake Sugaree" and Bob Dylan's "It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry". The performer’s and last album was "Sideman Serenade" recorded in 1990.
The talented musician has begun to reappear on the live concert scene, after several years of inactivity on the touring front. David reunited the “big band” a couple of times over the last few years.
The musician’s live performances remain as unique as ever. Concerts by Bromberg and his band are always extraordinary events, and their shows follow no set pattern of selection. Give and take between the performers is complete, spontaneous, and sincere.
David’s innovative resourcefulness and remarkable musical versatility have earned vast critical acclaim. Bromberg is also impossible to classify: as one of critics wrote, “he is a product of blues, country, jazz, folk, and classical music”.
