As “Fiddler on the Loop” I play mostly original tunes using my electric violin, a large suite of guitar pedals, and a 3-channel looping station. The pieces I play don’t really fall into a nice, tidy genre — they’ve all got influences from Bluegrass, Classical, Folk, Celtic, New Age, and a little rock n’ roll here and there, all smooshed together. If you’re curious, click on the “Music” link where I’ve planted a few recordings & videos. I play mostly at outdoor events like farmers markets & festivals, but I’m always happy to branch out; if you’re interested, please contact me!

About me: I started playing violin when I was 8 and did exclusively classical music through college. Since then I’ve gone down lots of other paths including playing in a marimba band, singing in choirs and glee clubs, fiddling at contra dances, electric fiddling in a rock band, and, since 2008, fiddling and singing with the Vancouver (USA)-based bluegrass band “Fadin’ by 9”.
