Fiona & Emmett at Royalton Memorial Library - Thursday August 10th at 2 pm
Emmett and Fiona are incredible performers. They will have folks of all ages singing and dancing along and kids will be inspired by their musicianship and want to learn to play, too!
Emmett Stowell is a 14 year old multi-instrumentalist from Montpelier, Vermont. He sings and plays banjo, piano, and guitar. Emmett has been playing music for nine years ever since he told his mom he wanted to play the "rockstar banjo"! He loves all types of traditional music, but his heart will always be with New England and Appalachian Old-Time music as taught to him by his mentor, Pete Sutherland.
Fiona Stowell is a 17 year old fiddler living in Montpelier Vermont. She has played music since the ripe old age of 4, and has been performing ever since. She is particularly passionate about Cape Breton, Old Time, and Quebecois fiddle styles, but loves playing a little bit of everything. Fiona is also a singer and Celtic dancer. She has sung all over New England with Village Harmony and Northern Harmony and has danced on stages from New York City to Quebec.
This program will include singalongs, fast tunes, and waltzes. With songs about bears, foxes, and how to plan your garden just right, there will be something for people of all ages.
