Jet Bridge

Jet Bridge is a band of festival friends who come together as an old-time supergroup, making waves in contra and square dancing. We’re so lucky to have them at American Week this year. Not to miss!

Fiddler Sami Braman has been in a band since she was two and is now a fixture in the Nashville music scene. She and her forever-bandmates The Onlies are two years into their tenure as Artistic Directors of the Festival of American Fiddle Tunes. She tours with the Willie Watson Band, Steamboat, and writes killer tunes.

Paula Bradley from Western Mass is the GOAT of old-time guitar and an accomplished boogie-woogie and honky tonk singer and piano player.

Abby Ladin can teach anyone to clog and applies that percussive prowess to her bass playing. She spent ten years at Family Week with her husband Sam Bartlett, who sits stage right in the band.

Sam has played banjo and mandolin for social dance his entire adult life, while maintaining an impressive veneer of immaturity.
