Level Best

• Bluegrass
• Country

Level Best is a traditional bluegrass band, formed seven year ago. Since then, they have played festivals, clubs, and music halls on both Coasts as well as touring Europe and Ireland multiple times. They have recorded three CDs. Level Best shows feature a rousing mix of country and bluegrass gems.

With exciting solo work on fiddle, dobro, mandolin, and banjo, Level Best has that soulful polish, earned with years of playing bluegrass and country music.

Level Best is Lisa Kay Howard Hughes on mandolin, Wally Hughes on fiddle and Dobro, Ed Lick on banjo, Joe Hannabach on bass, and James Field on guitar. Everyone sings. James’s career in bluegrass began many years ago, when he was a member of the Charles River Valley Boys and played many a night at the legendary Club 47, precursor to Passim. With the good fortune to be part of Level Best, it’s a special honor to return to the Passim stage.
