In 1977 they became the first American band in history to perform in the Soviet Union. John became the first American to lecture at the Moscow Conservatory of Music on the history of Western Blues and Rock music.

John is excited to be bringing the Georgia Mountain Stringband to accompany him at Fiddler’s Green. Formed in 2015 by Jason Waller, the Georgia Mountain Stringband has quickly become one of the leading original Bluegrass acts in the Southeast. The group was recently voted Best Bluegrass Band in Atlanta for 2019 by Creative Loafing readers.The 5-piece is stacked with Waller on guitar, David Stephens on banjo, Brendan Held on fiddle, Eddie Kesler on mandolin and Robert Green on upright bass.

JIM CULLITON & CLEAR CREEK

JIM CULLITON AND CLEAR CREEKThe multi-instrumental gifted talent of Jim Culliton has delighted Fiddlers Green audiences for many years. In Clear Creek Jim’s mandolin, fiddle and vocals share the stage with Joel Glogowski (upright bass) and Russell Weeks (guitar/vocals). This high energy trio offers an eclectic blend of different genres, mixing instrumental improvisation with traditional sounds and vocals.

Jim has played at the Fox Theatre, Atlanta Symphony Hall and many other concert venues. He was one of the early innovators in the New String Acoustic Movement – incorporating jazz, bluegrass, world music, rock, classical and vocals. With the formation of Clear Creek, he leads a trio that continues to deliver a truly innovative, entertaining, and dynamic acoustic sound.
