The High Strung Staff
Adam Sampieri
Originally from Northern NJ, Adam
Sampieri is now proud to call the Bull
City his home for work and play. He
has seen several tours of duty fronting
various bands between NC and NJ
and at present is working solo as a
singer/songwriter, constantly honing
his craft around the Triangle. His music
has been featured on stage, screen,
and radio.
Adam is also an active and
accomplished theater artist with
numerous professional credits to his
name as an actor, director, playwright,
and designer. When not making
music and art, he's usually watching
DVRed hockey games or checking
Mets' box scores.
Aaron Greenhood
Aaron is High Strung’s resident
mandolin enthusiast. Aaron is
available to talk to you about not only
mandolins, but guitars, violins and
ukes and anything else you might be
looking for.
A lover of Appalachian mountain
music, Klezmer, and anything that
sounds a little crooked, Aaron plans to
attend as many festivals as he can this
summer (check out our festivals
calendar). Before moving to Durham
in the fall of 2007, Aaron chased down
stories with his camera in Brooklyn,
New York for the newspapers there. In
addition to helping connect people
with instruments and their musical
potential, Aaron produces online
multimedia content for documentary
photography outlet, Daylight Magazine.

Edmond "Bud" Godreau
Violin Luthier
Bud has been with High Strung longer
than any of the rest of us, starting when
the shop was still on Perry Street. Bud
has been building and repairing violins
and other bowed string instruments for
thirty-some years, studying under Hans
Nebel and other luthiers. Bud is an
accomplished fiddle, banjo and
mandolin player; was the dj of one of
Connecticut's first bluegrass radio
programs, and is, in fact, a rocket
scientist.
