RootsCellar@Home presents Scott Ainslie

Steeped in traditional music from both sides of the color line, Scott Ainslie is a renowned acoustic blues guitarist, singer and songwriter. He learned southern old-time ballads, banjo and fiddle from senior musicians in North Carolina and West Virginia and blues from his black elders in North Carolina, Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia and Mississippi: his roots are deep.
“Scott Ainslie is a veteran touring pro who is frequently found performing in venues up and down the East Coast. With a warm, affable persona, and a wealth of musical knowledge, I highly recommend checking him out when he comes to a town near you. You won’t be sorry.”–Brian M. Owens, Blues Music Magazine, Issue Number Seven
Calliope’s RootsCellar@Home is our occasional series of online concerts that is delivered through Facebook live based on the unique and intimate club-like atmosphere of the Roots Cellar at the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts.
