Casey Driessen’s never-ending fiddle odyssey
Sunday, 23 February, 2025
Casey Driessen is simply one of the most inventive fiddlers on planet earth. I first saw him perform in his trademark red shoes with Tim O’Brien, and have had the honor of performing with him in Woody Platt’s backing ensemble The Bluegrass Gentlemen. Casey is friendly and open minded but I get the sense he doesn’t suffer fools and I was admittedly a little intimidated going into this session. I knew that I’d be stretched musically and I really was. He and River, however, cultivated a musical situation where presence and attention were all that was needed and we shared an unforgettable night of music that reminded me what Tuesday’s at 185 King St are all about.This episode was recorded live at 185 King St in Brevard, NC on December 3rd, 2024 This episode is brought to you by Thompson Guitars and is presented by Americana Vibes and The Bluegrass Situation as part of the BGS Podcast Network.
