Banjoïste
et Chanteur Bluegrass US né le 21 Décembre 1961 à Temple (Texas).
Bluegrass
is so rooted in folk traditions that it usually doesn't take much to rock the
boat. The progressive bluegrass movement takes the styles and structures of the
past and subverts them with rock & roll spirit and a sometimes punk rock
attitude.
Danny Barnes grew up in Texas, where he was raised on the music of bluegrass
pioneers Bill
Monroe, Flatt
& Scruggs, and Jimmie
Rodgers. A graduate of the University of Texas with a degree in audio
engineering, Barnes dedicated himself to traditional bluegrass playing, picking
up the banjo and seeing where the instrument would lead him. In Barnes' case,
the banjo led him to the Bad Livers, a progressive bluegrass band formed in 1990
and likely either to offend or amaze fans of the genre. Also featuring bandmates Mark
Rubin (on bass and tuba) and mandolin and guitar player Bob Grant (who replaced
fiddle player Ralph White), the group is as comfortable on the punk circuit as
it is on the folk circuit.
But Barnes' output extends well beyond that project. He frequently plays with
artists such as guitarist Bill Frisell, Dave Matthews, and keyboardist Wayne
Horvitz; has composed the scores to Richard Linklater's The Newton Boys and (with Frisell)
the documentary American Hollow; and has appeared on too many commercials and
sat in with too many bands to mention. He has also released a handful of notable
solo albums, including 2010's genre-defying Pizza Box. Barnesfollowed that album
with 2011's Rocket, issued on ATO. It was produced by John Alagia, and features
all-star drummer Matt Chamberlain and keyboardist/bassist Zac Rae. Barnesplayed
various banjos, guitars, basses, keyboards, and loops, and handled the
programming. Dave Matthews guests on the leadoff single, a cover of T. Rex's
“Bang a Gong (Get It On)."
