Tim Eriksen came to the attention of folk audiences when the band Cordelia's Dad burst onto the scene 20 years ago. Widely regarded as the best traditional American ballad singer (and a noted ethnomusicologist and musical archaeologist) of his generation, this multi-instrumentalist (banjo, fiddle, guitar, bajo sexton, saraswati veena) has sung, consulted and written songs for films including Cold Mountain and The Lady Killers, worked with artists ranging from Sting and Jack White to Ralph Stanley and Alison Krauss, and may be the only person to have appeared on stage with both Doc Watson and Kurt Cobain.
