Following the great success of The Goat Rodeo Sessions album, The Goat Rodeo Sessions Live brings cellist Yo-Yo Ma, fiddler Stuart Duncan, bassist Edgar Meyer and mandolinist Chris Thile together for a one-night-only concert that was filmed at the House of Blues in Boston in January 2012. The four string virtuosos were joined by guest vocalist, Aoife O’Donovan. The album was Yo-Yo Ma’s fastest-selling album and was the winner of the Songlines Magazine Award for ‘Cross Cultural Collaboration’.

While each musician is a renowned superstar in his own sphere, they have come together now as a unified ensemble on a most remarkable and organic cross-genre project stemming from their friendship, and the title concept. The Goat Rodeo is summed up by Yo-Yo Ma: “In the end, what we’re trying to do is simply make music that transcends whatever roots or categories of backgrounds that it starts from, that just exists as something that we’re trying to express, through our community of values, as a moment in time creating very special music.”
