Love is a complicated emotion, and music has long been a place to explore those complexities— and bluegrass is no exception.

Songs reflecting longing, heartbreak, new relationships, and the occasional tale of deception or misfortune are common in this music.

In this program, The Splinters present a range of pieces that touch on these themes, offering a wellrounded look at love in its many forms.

The concert features a thoughtful collection of traditional and contemporary bluegrass love songs, performed with the band’s characteristic groove, three-part harmonies, and driving banjo and fiddle.

The Splinters, a bluegrass band from Massachusetts, deliver a relentless groove to accompany their tight 3-part harmonies.

Tom Pritchard (fiddle) brings the heat to his fiddle playing.

J Johnson (mandolin) adds a jazzy flair to his breaks.

Chris Reckling (guitar, banjo) picks solid rhythm and punchy leads on top of Garrett Wallace’s grooving bass fiddle.

Newest band member, Max Petersen provides the rolling firepower on banjo.

A Splinters set veers from straight ahead bluegrass to traditional fiddle tunes and back, with the occasional detour into a modern song.

They have been playing together since 2010 and have released 3 albums, available on all the major streaming platforms.
