Grammy Award–winning singer/songwriter Abigail Washburn is a banjo virtuoso who became fluent in both the language and culture of China while prepping for a career in law focused on U.S.-China relations. Wu Fei, a Chinese musical prodigy and master of the 2,000-year-old 21-string guzheng, was destined for a professional career performing state-sanctioned works in her homeland.

Diverging from those paths resulted in a convergence of musical careers that now boldly push the boundaries of what you expect to hear in concert. Blurring the lines between their different art forms and homes in Appalachia and China, the effervescent resonances of Fei's guzheng dance around Washburn's expressive banjo playing, creating a musical thread the two friends can't help but use to draw us all closer together.
