The First Couple of the banjo, Fleck and Edina High School alum Washburn are not only touring for the first time together — but also for the first time with their son Juno, 20 months. Last year, their self-titled album brought both adventurers back to their bluegrass roots, with more rhythmic and tonal complexity than one might expect. That material will be the focus of the show, along with tunes from their solo careers and the kind of repartee that only married couples can offer once their toddler has gone to bed. Jon Bream
