We are delighted that Kentucky American songwriter Michael Prewitt is performing at the Gregson as part of his UK tour.
Hailing from the hills of East Kentucky, Michael, known for his creative and hard-driving approach to the mandolin over the last few years with Grammy-nominated and IBMA award- winning bluegrass band Special Consensus, has journeyed all around the world and now come home, releasing a debut vocal album of original songwriting, titled Something He Can Handle.
On this album, which Bluegrass Today termed “a brilliant effort,” he showcases his fresh, inventive take on bluegrass songwriting. In his live shows, these original songs are paired with many detours onto the bluegrass back roads of forgotten B-sides, respectful covers, and old fiddle tunes, forming a unique blend of thoughtful lyricism and hot picking that has been enthusiastically received by audiences at dive bars, festivals, rock clubs, theaters, listening rooms, and breweries across the USA, Canada, and Europe.
“Michael is one of the most creative and accomplished mandolin players in the world of bluegrass music today, and writes songs that tell stories with memorable lyrics and melodies” — Greg Cahill, The Special Consensus
