You Can be a FiddleStar
I post things about fiddling. And how we can all be better at it.
Loved getting to catch up with a former camper and always friend. Marie McGlone came to the first few FiddleStar Youth Camps and always made everyone’s experience more joyful and fun. Now she’s a student at Belmont University getting a great education and playing great music. So proud of sweet Marie! #fiddle #fiddlestar (at The Fiddle House)
These two right here. #favorites #fiddle #martinguitar #bluegrass #fiddlestarcamp (at The Violin Shop)
One of our campers made bags for each of her fellow campers, featuring the tunes they’re working on and the names of all the teachers. These are the kinds of people who come to our camp. This job is so much more than a job - it’s a reminder that humanity is full of kind and generous people. Adam and I love you all. #fiddlestarcamp #fiddle #kindnessandgenerosity (at Fiddlestar Camps)
And they’re bonding… #fiddlestarcamp #redsolocup #fiddle (at Ridgetop, Tennessee)

Yep, it may only be October but if we’re gonna get this Christmas record out we better get moving. #christmasalbum #marysueenglund #unisonisthenewharmony (at Root Note Studios)
Here’s my husband with one of his heroes, Robert Trujillo, the bass player for Metallica. Robert produced a documentary about the late, great bass legend Jaco Pastorius and we attended the screening tonight at The Belcourt. The film was fabulous and the q & a with Robert afterward was illuminating. The Belcourt is a Nashville treasure and if you’re not attending regularly you’re missing out. Also, Jaco. #jaco #thebelcourt #roberttrujillo (at Belcourt Theatre)
Congratulations to my student Gene Banks on his 1st place finish in the senior fiddler division at the #athensfiddlersconvention2015 I’m so proud - he works so hard! #fiddle #fiddlestar (at Tennessee Valley Old Time Fiddler’s Convention)

I am excited to embark on a new chapter of my working life - I recently gave my notice to the Pam Tillis organization and will no longer be touring with her or Lorrie Morgan (on their awesome Grits and Glamour Tour). I must admit, I'm sad to be leaving. It's been an incredible four years and I have learned so much. Thanks to Pam, her amazing husband/manager Matt Spicher, and my bandmates, especially the lovely and talented Mary Sue Englund, with whom I spent more time over the last few years than I did with my husband. And I wouldn't trade a minute of it...
