Nina Weisman is a fixture in the Central and Northern California bluegrass scene. She’s mentored many young mandolin players over the years and is a natural-born teacher. She’s won several regional picking contests and boasts a long list of performance credits with many California-based bluegrass bands. Nina has been a JFFC instructor at every camp since 2012, and adds a special quality to the JFFC experience. When not playing her mandolin, you can find Nina sporting a ranger’s hat and leading a group or two around Denali National Park in Alaska.
