A Celebration of Dreamer’s Waltz
With Scott Nyaard 

Peghead Nation co-founder Scott Nygaard’s beautiful second solo album, Dreamer’s Waltz, was released 25 years ago, and it is an important and influential document of Scott’s inventive compositions and his interpretations of traditional tunes. In addition to Scott’s progressive guitar playing, the album also features playing from many of the folks that Scott has collaborated with over the years, leaders in the bluegrass and roots music community. These include Darol Anger on fiddle, Jerry Douglas on dobro, Tim O’Brien on fiddle and vocals, John Reischman on mandolin, Mark Schatz on bass, Dirk Powell, and many others.

 
To celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Dreamer’s Waltz, Peghead Nation guitar instructor Flynn Cohen will interview Scott about the project, diving deep into Scott’s recollections of the creation of one of contemporary bluegrass guitar’s seminal works. Also joining Flynn and Scott will be Brittany Haas, who will play a tune or two from the album. And there will be a few pre-recorded video messages from Scott’s notable collaborators.

This Celebration of Dreamer’s Waltz will happen Wednesday, May 25, at 5 PM Pacific Time / 8 PM Eastern Time on Zoom. Please register to attend this free session!
