Live at The Carnegie: Tony Furtado Trio

Tony Furtado is an acclaimed folk and roots musician who has recorded 20 albums under his own name as well as played with the likes of Alison Krauss, Jerry Douglas, Tim O’Brien, Kelly Joe Phelps. Prior to his career as a musician, he was a ceramic sculptor in college. This work was cut short after winning the National Bluegrass Banjo Championship. As his music career progressed with tours with Gregg Allman David Lindley, Derek Trucks and Sonny Landreth, he returned to Portland to expand on the fundamentals of sculpting. He dug into human anatomy, color theory, glaze formulation and mold making & casting. When he felt ready, he bought a kiln and moved his practice into a studio space at the Falcon Art Community.
