If you haven’t been watching her already, Bronwyn Keith Hynes is definitely a player to keep your eyes on now.  IBMA’s Momentum Instrumentalist of the year 2018 is set to release her first solo album, Fiddler’s Pastime on September 4th.

Billows of tear gas fill the warm, summer night air. The shouts and pleas for justice replaced by hacking coughs, irritated eyes and people forced to their knees, desperately trying to breathe. A metal baton is used to shove a middle-aged woman, peacefully expressing her First Amendment right. A twenty something man, holding a sign that simply states, “We Need Change,” is grabbed without explanation and thrown into an unmarked van. American cities are being terrorized by unidentified federal agents that resemble paramilitary.

Fiddler’s Pastime is the debut solo album that establishes fiddler Bronwyn Keith-Hynes as one of the most exciting bluegrass musicians of her generation.  This powerful collection of original fiddle tunes and traditional songs features world renowned guest artists Sierra Hull, Tim O’Brien, Sarah Jarosz, Chris Eldridge, Laura Orshaw and James Kee. Release date Sept. 4th.
