The incredible Jake Jolliff of Yonder Mountain String Band sends us his inimitable take on this jazz classic played on his recent 2017 x-braced Gilchrist mandolin.
Originally from Newberg, OR, Jake has basically done it all with the mandolin. While attending the Berklee College of Music, he joined the roots and bluegrass band Joy Kills Sorrow. He won the Winfield National Mandolin Contest in 2012, and now plays with the widely successful Yonder Mountain String Band.
Now Jake lives in New York City, and in-between dates with Yonder Jake also fronts his own group called the Jake Jolliff Band. He just released a jaw-dropping record of original music with this group entitled Instrumentals Vol. 1. Check it out here: https://store.cdbaby.com/cd/jacobjolliff
Jake teaches private lessons online and in person. Inquire at his website for more info.
