Zack Kline is a fiddler at ease in many styles, from Appalachian tunes to Bach and works these varied influences into an original sound. Zack completed his violin studies at Macalester College and performs with groups including Piper's Crow and the Orange Mighty Trio. As a young fiddler in Colorado, Zack studied American roots music firsthand, playing with contemporary bluegrass groups including the Yonder Mountain String Band. He also gained much from his extensive street performing. Mark O'Connor, Darol Anger and Edgar Meyer are some of his primary influences. Recently Zack's tune Fiddler's World was featured on NPR's online Open Mic show.
