GRAMMY-nominated multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter, and bandleader Joe Troop returns to his favorite hometown venue, The Fruit, for another thrilling residency series. Once a week for the first three weeks of December, Joe will showcase a different ensemble featuring a rotating cast of musicians and a range of musical styles.


To kick off his series, he goes back to his roots.


Over the years, Joe has carved himself a niche as an “artivist,” entwining music and social justice. He has now recruited some of his favorite festival friends from the Old Time and Bluegrass scene to form a political protest powerhouse, the Truth Machine:


Joe Troop (banjo, guitar, vocals), Lu Furtado (guitar, vocals), Deb Shebish (fiddle), Olivia Fernandez (mandolin, vocals) and Jimmy Washington (bass).


Stick around after their hour-long set to meet the musicians!
