Jb and Cardineau Sin Bluegrass Band

Jean-Baptiste Cardineau (he/him) is a Franco-American mandolin player, singer and songwriter who manifests his unique musical and lyrical vision via a well-spring of various early styles of music.

His unique "Nouveau-Traditional" Bluegrass style has already unleashed the heavy picking artillery on some of the worlds biggest stages and won him the 2025 Freshgrass Award in mandolin and a full ride scholarship to Berklee College of Music where he studied Jazz, Classical music, and various ethnic styles while his spontaneous Bluegrass playing became synthesized with the early innovators on the mandolin.
