- Joe_Craven abstract "Joe Craven is a Freestyle folk, world and roots music multi-instrumentalist, singer and award winning educator. Joe is the Director of RiverTunes Music Camp and a Co-Director of the Wintergrass Youth Academy. He plays a wide variety of string instruments, including fiddle, mandolin, ukulele, tres, cavaquinio, balaliaka, as well as a world of percussion, including anything he can get his hands on, such as a pickling jar, a credit card, or a jawbone. Craven is a well known sight at acoustic music festivals and, for many years, was violinist and percussionist for the David Grisman Quintet. Craven lists some of his influences being Jimi Hendrix, dumpster diving, Hermeto Pascoal, thrift stores, Frank Zappa, educator and aesthetician John Dewey, beachcombing, Carl Stalling, Eddie Palmieri, field recordings, Tiny Moore, Los Pleneros De Viente Uno, Darol Anger and The Horseflies.Joe Craven has played with many notable musicians including Jerry Garcia, Stephane Grappelli, Alison Brown, Rob Ickes and David Lindley. He performs solo and in different sizes and versions of his own projects, most notably The Joe Craven Trio.Craven's noted instrument ability is matched only by his creativity. He finds rhythm and unique sound in almost any object. A favorite \"instrument\" of his is any small, plastic trash that can turned upside down and played with either brushes or his own hands. Craven's collection of percussion instruments (found sound and ones designed for the purpose) is vast and includes examples from around the world.Along with Joe's concert and festival performing, he is highly regarded for his work with school children, university students and communities in general. His workshops are as much about finding the \"voice\" we all have as they are about music. The kids attending these school assemblies and classes often come away with a better sense of self and their value in the world around them. Self-esteem building via music and humor is what this part of Joe's work is all about. The value of his work with children has serious positive results. Craven's \"free child\" seems to be heard by every student attending his workshops, even the ones who claim to be \"too cool\" to bother.The western regional arm (FARWest) of Folk Alliance International (formerly known as the North American Folk Music & Dance Alliance) awarded Joe its highest honor \"Best of The West\" for 2009. Previous recipients have included The Kingston Trio, Rosalie Sorrels, U. Utah Phillips, and Lowen & Navarro. The award announcement was made in July 2009. Presentation to Joe was made on Saturday November 7, 2009, during the FARWest annual conference at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Irvine, California.".
