Tim O'brien & Jan Fabricius

Manchester Folk are excited to present Tim O'Brien & Jan Fabricius. Grammy award winning Americana artist Tim O'Brien is back with a strong follow up to 2021's "He Walked On". Including 13 new originals about a bear, a fish, lambs and horses, and people too - a gravedigger, a neighbour and even Walter Cronkite - "Cup Of Sugar" is a feel good summer release with humour on top and deeper meanings just below the surface. Multi-instrumentalist O'Brien is backed by loyal band mates Mike Bub, Shad Cobb and Jan Fabricius, and supplemented by Jamie Dic on Drums, Mike Rojas on keyboards, Russ Pahl on steel guitar, and Cory Ealker on banjo. Bluegrass icon Del McCoury lends his signature guitar and tenor vocal on "Let The Horses Run". Sounding more and more like himself, O'Brien will debut the new material from "Cup Of Sugar" at the 50th annual Telluride Bluegrass festival on June 17. Venue Access - Access is on the Ground Floor.
