Described as “an absolute master” (No Depression), Bruce's take on tradition has landed him in collaborations with some of the world's most highly respected players from roots to rock. His long association with Aly Bain and Jerry Douglas in the Transatlantic Sessions, his trio with Aly and Swedish maestro Ale Möller, and years of solo touring have landed him in the UK dozens of times. He is also a special guest on legend rocker Mark Knopfler’s CD, “Tracker.” Along with Andy Irvine & Donal Lunny, Bruce is a founding member of the supergroup Mozaik. The Grammy nominated Fiddlers 4, Darol, Bruce with Michael Doucet and Rushad Eggleston were at Fiddles On Fire in Gateshead.
