Cabinet and the Art of Bluegrass

Nadine Friedman

It "looks like it would break if you breathed on it the wrong way, like a server carrying champagne glasses.  But somehow, by the end of an evening," says Cabinet's Todd Kopec of his fiddle, "I'm gripping it like hammer, or a sword."  During one of Cabinet's winding instrumental jams, the delicate instrument does seem explosive in his hands. He's a member of a six-man band blending convivial bluegrass tradition with an intelligent, synced appreciation for all music. Not really what one would expect from Scranton.
