Jayme Stone & The Other Side of the Air. Jayme Stone (banjo), Rob Mosher (woodwinds), Bobby Hawk (fiddle), and Andrew Small (bass).

Two-time Juno Award winning banjoist, composer and instigator Jayme Stone makes music inspired by sounds from around the world. His brand new album, "The Other Side of the Air," is a travelogue of imaginary landscapes and faraway lands. The album traverses the Cinnamon Route through Persia and India, revisits and reinvents melodies Stone collected in West Africa, and includes a Concerto for Banjo and Chamber Symphony written for Stone by Canadian composer Andrew Downing. You might also catch the band playing a Bach fugue, a Trinidadian Calypso, or a Bulgarian mountain dance.

"The Yo-Yo Ma of the banjo."
