Blindfaller Bluegrass Competition 2009 Duo

Blindfaller builds on the acclaim of Mandolin Orange’s breakthrough debut on Yep Roc Information, 2013’s This Aspect of Jordan, and its follow-up, final 12 months’s Such Jubilee.

Since their fortuitous meeting at a bluegrass jam session in 2009, the duo has embarked on a remarkable journey. They have gained momentum and a devoted following through their performances at renowned music festivals like Austin City Limits, Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Newport Folk Festival, and Pickathon. This dynamic pair, known as blindfaller, has been on the road for extended periods, captivating audiences along the way.

The duo's songwriter, Andrew Marlin, demonstrates his lyrical prowess in the 'blindfaller' album by exploring universal themes such as aging and helplessness amidst a world plagued by injustice. While the album may seem simplistic on the surface, it is deeply entrenched in the current events of our day-to-day lives.
