Not Our First Goat Rodeo reunites the talents of four different virtuoso musicians Yo-Yo Ma on cello, Stuart Duncan on fiddle, Edgar Meyer on bass, and Chris Thile on mandolin for the first time in nearly a decade. Joined on the album by vocalist Aoife O’Donovan on three tracks, these four exceptional artists (each a Grammy Award-winning star in his own right), have perfected a unique, genre-breaking sound that’s part composed, part improvised, and uniquely American music so unorthodox that the group likens it to a “goat rodeo,” an aviation term for an event that teeters on the edge of (yet successfully avoids) disaster.
