She was obviously having a blast while she played. I tried to find out who she was, to see if she had recorded anything else, but haven't been able to track down anything about her. Anyone heard of them?
Sorry never heard of them but I will keep my ears open. On the theme of female fiddle players check out Winifred Horan from the band Solas. She put out a solo cd that is pretty freeking great. While you are at it check out Solas and Cherish the Ladies both of the bands she plays with featuring members of the incredibly talented Egan family.
