Able to swing gracefully from jazz to classical to bluegrass to Latin styles, he puts his stamp on everything he plays with an unusually potent blend intellect and emotion a combination of musical skill and instinct rare in the world of American vernacular instrumentalists. Paul Kowert, at twenty-one years old, had recently become the bass player for the bluegrass group the Punch Brothers (headlined by mandolin player Chris Thile) and plays a double bass plucked or bowed with equally terrifying proficiency. Alex Hargreaves is already an accomplished violinist at age sixteen. In June, 2007, Alex became the youngest ever winner of the Grand Champion division at the National Old-time Fiddlers' Contest in Weiser, Idaho. Like Kowest, he's shared the stage with several acoustic legends, like David Grisman, Darol Anger and Mark O'Connor
