The Down Hill Strugglers at TCCC
Americana, Folk/Traditional. Old time

We look forward to The Strugglers' return to our stage. The old time string band is a favorite at TCCC, dating back to 2016 when John Cohen, celebrated musician and our co-founder, brought them here for the first time. John praised their music as combining “the intensity of rural music, while delighting in the nuances that preserve the individual uniqueness of the genre. This is music that will keep your mind dancing.”

Jackson Lynch - fiddle, voice, guitar, Walker Shepard - guitar, voice, fiddle, banjo, and Eli Smith - banjo, guitar, mandolin, harmonica, and pump organ, play old tunes with delightful new interpretations. The Strugglers are featured on the soundtrack to the Coen Brothers film, Inside Llewyn Davis, and Dreamland with Margot Robbie.

Their new album, Old Juniper is described as “a doozy” by Alice Gerrard, with Nathan Salsburg’s additional description of “an exquisite sensitivity to the seam where collective tradition and individual artistry meet.”
