SHAUNCEY ALI
QUARTET
Shauncey Ali has won the RockyGrass fiddle competition, performed with Peter Gabriel, composed and recorded theme music for an Ambie-nominated podcast and directs MadFiddle, his own reimagined model for youth music education - work that has taken him across the U.S., Canada, Italy, Spain and Scotland.
​​​​​​
His newest project, the Shauncey Ali Quartet captivates audiences with evocative melodies and daring arrangements that straddle the intersection of tradition and innovation. Shauncey's voice artfully blends bluegrass, Celtic and Nordic fiddle styles with sensibilities influenced by pop, rock and classical music. ​​​​
​​​
​​Featuring Nicholas Vanhaute (mandolin), Hans Holzen (acoustic and electric guitar), and David Havas (upright bass), the ensemble challenges listeners with an experience that is virtuosic yet accessible, rooted in tradition yet unbound by convention.​

SUPPORT THE NEW ALBUM!
I'm thrilled to be releasing new music with this stellar lineup and very excited to announce that the new album is now available for pre-order! Every pre-order helps make this project possible, and the rewards are a small way to say thank you for supporting independent music! Can't wait to share this music with you.
"SHAUNCEY EMANATES WARMTH, GENEROSITY AND JOY WITH HIS MUSIC MAKING. I LOVE HIS WRITING, HIS SPIRIT AND GETTING THE CHANCE TO PLAY WITH HIM!"
