John Hartford's nimble, whit-fueled songs have long been a focal point of the bluegrass and newgrass canon and Hartford's musicianship, on both the banjo and fiddle, has now been doted over for generations, but until recently, little has been known about his late-in-life, academic approach to fiddle music.

Known collectively as Hawktail, fiddler Brittany Haas, bassist Paul Kowert, guitarist Jordan Tice, and mandolinist Dominick Leslie are proud to share their much-anticipated sophomore album, Formations today. With the help of co-producer Chris “Critter” Eldridge, the band recorded the album in just four days at Nashville's Southern Ground Studios. The album has received high praise from critics, including NPR Music who complimented the band's “rustic” sound on All Songs Considered's “New Music Friday” this morning. No Depression commented, “As new album Formations proves, the band members defy expectations based on other projects or instruments of choice by constantly pushing each other's creative boundaries,” while Folk Alley praised the band's unprecedented musicianship, noting, “We simply haven't seen these instruments played this way and with this exuberance... except by Hawktail.” The group will begin touring this month at Folk Alliance in New Orleans, followed by two Nashville performances including an album release show at Little Harpeth Brewing and a special performance at the Grand Ole Opry on February 1. Formations is available today, click here to purchase or stream.

Known collectively as Hawktail, fiddler Brittany Haas, bassist Paul Kowert, guitarist Jordan Tice, and mandolinist Dominick Leslie have combined their monstrous compositional and instrumental forces once again for a much-anticipated sophomore album, Formations. Set for release on January 10th, 2020 via Padiddle Records, Formations took only two months to write and four days to record, a far cry from the 3-year process of their debut album, Unless. “We had studio dates to record a quick EP of covers, arrangements we'd been playing live,” explains Kowert, “But we had these strong starts that felt so good that we were like 'let's finish THESE instead,'” Adds Haas, “We found a new joy in creating, tapping into the experience we gained from writing and recording Unless.”
