Widely considered the bluegrass fiddler of his generation, Michael Cleveland has been recognized 12 times as the IBMA’s “Fiddler of the Year” and in 2018 was inducted into the National Fiddler’s Hall of Fame. His recording Fiddler’s Dream was nominated in 2018 for a Grammy for Best Bluegrass Album, and in 2019, he won a Grammy for his album Tall Fiddler. In 2019, Cleveland’s life of adversity and achievement was featured in the documentary film Flamekeeper: The Michael Cleveland Story. In 2022, he was awarded the National Endowment for the Arts Heritage Fellowship. "Cleveland has become a bluegrass star ... winning 29 IBMA awards and becoming the organization’s most decorated fiddler," says The New York Times. "He is one of the world’s most in-demand and distinctive players, with collaborators that include Béla Fleck, Billy Strings and Vince Gill."
