David Bromberg Band

Effective period / Period of releases: 1975 - 2020

Members: Hugh McDonald, David Bromberg, Brantley Kearns, Lance Dickerson, Dick Fegy, Steve Mosley, George Kindler, John Firmin, Curtis Linberg

Bromberg’s range of material, based in the folk and blues idioms, continually expanded with each new album to encompass bluegrass, ragtime, country and ethnic music, and his touring band grew apace.

By the mid-’70s, the David Bromberg Big Band included horn-players, a violinist, and several multi-instrumentalists, including David himself. Among the best-known Bromberg Band graduates: mandolinist Andy Statman, later a major figure in the Klezmer music movement in America, and fiddler Jay Ungar (who wrote the memorable “Ashokan Farewell” for Ken Burns’ PBS documentary, “The Civil War”). Bromberg dissolved the band in 1980 to take a hiatus from the entertainment business.
