Rushad Eggleston – Rhythmic Explorations on the Cello – Chops, Chords, Syncopations and Accompaniments

“Unleash your wild, internal cello monster.” – Rushad

The cello has been growing in popularity as a dynamic and exciting accompaniment instrument ever since Rushad Eggleston introduced it to fans of Crooked Still, Fiddlers 4, Tornado Rider and other cutting-edge string bands. He brings the cello out of the conservatory and squarely into the 21st Century with his uniquely powerful chopping, strumming, chording, bass lines and fanciful, groove-oriented improvisations.

Rushad expertly shows players at all levels how to “make the cello into a whole band.” He plays and carefully explains his impeccable solo lines and richly-textured double-stops, chord shapes and bowing techniques that can be used to back up other instruments or singers. Rushad accompanies his own high-spirited original songs, and fiddle master Jay Ungar joins him in a demonstration of more conventional traditional tunes.

All players, including those who have only studied classical, will be inspired to add Rushad’s astonishing sounds and techniques to their old-time, blues, bluegrass, folk, avant garde and even rock music adventures.

Bio:

Rushad Eggleston electrifies audiences wherever he displays his virtuosic technique, infectious showmanship and musical passion. Grounded in classical music but highly influenced by rock, bluegrass, hip-hop and a myriad of other alternative styles, he has taken his chosen instrument to new levels of creativity and accomplishment. After studying with Eugene Friesen at Berklee College of Music, Rushad joined Darol Anger in his recording and touring ensembles, Fiddlers 4 and Republic of Strings. Nominated for a Grammy, the Boston Herald called him “the premier cellist in modern roots music.” His high-octane performances later took shape in the alt-bluegrass band Crooked Still, as well as his own Tornado Rider and Wild Band of Snee. Rushad has taught at a variety of music workshops, including Mark O’Connor’s Fiddle Camp.
