About Us

Our Story

A family band in rural mid-coast Maine!


Mary, 13 is classically trained in Suzuki method and New England fiddle repertoire.

Allison, 15 is also classically trained in Suzuki method and New England fiddle repertoire.

Jeff took piano lessons from age 6 through 16, picked up guitar at 21 and plays backing rhythm.

Karen, gets credit for just about everything else!

Together our family band plays a diverse range of fiddle tunes, holiday tunes, classical  and originals for concerts, jams, play-ins, contradances and barn dances throughout Mid-coast Maine! 


Our Influences

Music in Damariscotta, Music in Newcastle, Music in Alna.


Our music blends traditional acoustic folk stylings of the Down East, Acadian, Cape Breton, Quebecois, Irish, Scottish, Shetland and Old Time repertoire.  The band uses these fiddling styles to create a unique Mid-Coast Maine sound of driving rhythms, lush harmonies and timeless melodic storylines.
