Emily has played fiddle for 20 years, and accordion for 15. All her life she’s been singing and dancing, and leading parades around dance camp, or around the kitchen. She finds connection, humor and great joy in playing with others… and wants to make that as accessible as possible to those around her. Currently, Emily performs with several projects around New England and beyond. She teaches fiddle as well as monthly workshops on broader music skills. She’s also the Fearless Leader of the Rage Potatoes, an all-comers band in the Portland, ME area.

In between events, you’ll find Emily digging weeds out of her garden or riding her bike to town.
