We are three fiddlers from three very different backgrounds – Danish, American, and Native 
American – who love to play together. Jamie’s Métis tradition, evolved from the melding of French Canadian, Irish and Native American music, has a Celtic flavor with a hint of Native American drumming. Kristian’s Danish tradition combines bright Nordic melodies with a powerful rhythm and lively fiddle seconding. Ruthie’s American style is syncopated and a bit bluesy. We like to show how each culture brings its own voice to the fiddle. But sometimes we just combine our styles and see what happens! We hope that you will enjoy listening to it, just as much as we enjoy playing it.
See the full tour schedule under upcoming gigs!

– sorry, my non-Danish speaking friends, this new podcast series is only in Danish. But if you want to explore the site www.radiofolk.dk, you will find programs in English as well as the ones in Danish.
During June 4-6th we were 5 musicians gathered at Kongegaarden in Korsør to launch a new project that we hope to bring out on the road in the summer of 2019.

Dansk Rigsspillemand (National folk musician of Denmark) at a big celebration concert held at the Danish Parliament building on May 16th, see www.rigsspillemand.dk (only text in Danish.)
In September yet a chapter was added to the great story, when Dwight was honored in Washington, DC by the National Endowments of the Arts www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8icQf4p-BA&feature=youtu.be
