Hayde Bluegrass Orchestra

Cary Arts Center 101 Dry Ave, Cary

If you love Nickel Creek and Alison Krause, you'll find your happy place with Hayde's blend of traditional bluegrass, folk-rock, pop, and Irish/Celtic influences. Hayde Bluegrass Orchestra is a seven-piece acoustic band from Oslo, Norway, that has captured hearts in both Norway and the US with its unique blend of bluegrass and Nordic folk — a style often dubbed “Nordicana.” Featuring fiddle, dobro, banjo, mandolin, guitar, and even an accordion alongside four-part vocal harmonies, the group delivers a fresh take on American roots music wrapped in a finely tuned folk sound. Fronted by Rebekka Nilsson — winner of the 2022 IBMA Momentum “Vocalist of the Year” award — Hayde Bluegrass Orchestra combines original songs, classic tunes, and timeless covers into an energetic and soulful repertoire.
