Jacob Jolliff, Jesse Jones - Jolliff Plays Jones (2026) [Hi-Res]

The album Jolliff plays Jones is a collaborative project between mandolin virtuoso Jacob Jolliff and composer Jesse Jones. This work merges progressive bluegrass with classical music, resulting in a unique genre hybrid. The centerpiece of the record is the five-movement concerto Tune Book, specifically composed to showcase Jolliff’s technical prowess and the full range of the instrument. Complemented by Jones’s solo mandolin pieces from various career stages, the album stands as a highly technical crossover that bridges the gap between folk traditions and the academic rigor of symphonic music.
