Originally released in 1977, Banjoland is Grammy-nominated banjo maestro Tony Trischka’s 4th album. The album is a bold mixture of progressive bluegrass, jazz, and fusion. Banjoland is considered one of the best bluegrass instrumental albums and features a who’s who of guest musicians including Bèla Fleck and Tony Rice. Allmusic’s Sandra Brennan wrote of him: "One of the most influential modern banjoists, both in several forms of bluegrass music and occasionally in jazz and avant-garde, Tony Trischka has inspired a whole generation of progressive bluegrass musicians.” In October 2007, Tony was given an IBMA (International Bluegrass Music Association) award for Banjo Player of the Year 2007. In December of 2012, Tony was awarded the United States Artists Friends Fellow in recognition of the excellence of his work.
