Something special for you this Monday. Direct from USA are folk sensations Jocelyn Pettit and Ellen Gira. Biog below -
Joining forces in Glasgow in 2018, Jocelyn Pettit & Ellen Gira were already two well-established musicians, who found they share a kindred musical spirit. With Jocelyn on fiddle and Ellen on cello, they push boundaries between traditional and contemporary genres to create a powerfully uplifting and soulful performance.
On stage, their instruments weave a rhythmic, textured sound with nuanced fiddle-cello interplay. Complemented with lively step dancing, they bring life and fire into original tunes, songs, and high-energy repertoire from Scotland, Ireland, North America, and Scandinavia. FolkWorld Magazine calls them “A dazzling duo!”.
Jocelyn is from the West Coast of BC, and is a vibrant fiddle player, step dancer and singer.
Ellen is from the East Coast of the USA, and is establishing herself as one of the most versatile cellists in the Scottish and American traditional music scenes.
