SUMMARY:Camrose: Andrew Collins Trio
DESCRIPTION:Mando maestro Andrew Collins finds himself – through no actual fault of his own – at the epicentre of Canada’s burgeoning acoustic/roots music scene. He didn’t invent it – but he’s certainly been a contributor, having co-founded seriously noteworthy Canadian bands like the Creaking Tree String Quartet, the Foggy Hogtown Boys and, more recently, his namesake Trio. That’s not to mention the fact that this prolific, robust performer – comfortable on mandolin, fiddle, guitar, mandola and mandocello – composes, produces, arranges, writes and teaches across multiple genres, including a popular collision of folk, jazz, bluegrass, celtic, and classical.\nAs Collins gathers up innumerable JUNO nominations (5) and Canadian Folk Music Awards (7) won by his various ensembles, he’s zeroing in on the work he does with Trio-mates:  fellow string guru Adam Shier, whose versatility shines through on guitar, mandolin, and vocals, and in-the-pocket James McEleney holding it down on the bass, mandocello and vocals. Showcasing a dizzying number of styles and instruments on stage, Collins and Co. appear to live by the old adage, “idle hands are the devil’s workshop”, likely keeping them just ahead of his grasp. Bending and blending genres, these musical shape shifters land somewhere between the re-imagined worlds of Béla Fleck and Newgrass invader, David Grisman. \nIn 2024, they released The Rule of Three, which received much acclaim including three more 2025 Canadian Folk Music Award nominations.  True to his form, Andrew hasn’t allowed himself to rest on his laurels.  The Trio have a new release on its way. Retro, a retrospective look back at Andrew’s 25+ years composing and performing his own music, explores and reimagines some of his favourite pieces that predate the trio’s existence. \n
