I grew up in a musical family, and have sang and played violin in our family band since I was 6 years old. We travel to small towns all over Alberta, playing a variety of genres including bluegrass, jazz, folk, celtic, country, and western.
I absolutely LOVE harmonies! They get me every time! And I love unique jazzy chords! And anything played from the heart. Emotion is the most important aspect of music in my opinion.
