Band to Join.

ABOUT

Singing violin chic looking to add a band to my current mix. Willing to do covers. Styles of music I currently play (in random order): Blues, R&B, Folk, Celtic, Classical, Swing, Country, Rock (yes fiddles do rock think of it as another guitar to your mix). Can improvise on the fly, just name the key and I can make it work.
I have also just started to add mandolin playing to my mix.
Drop me a line if interest.
If you would like to see video of me playing, check out under Blue Edge of The Prairie.
If you are needing references, please let me know and I can send them along to you.
Hope to hear from you soon :o)
