Details:
Ari (21) and Mia (16) Friedman are twin members of the hot, up-and-coming fiddle/folk band. Ari is in her third year at Northwestern studying cello performance, but she is mostly a folk musician, and aside from gigging with Mia, she also performs, tours, and records with Hanneke Cassel and teaches at various fiddle camps. She also plays clawhammer banjo. Mia got into fiddling way before Ari even knew that the classical box she was stuck in had secret passageways out. Mia is a talented young fiddler (and a budding mandolin and guitar player) and hails from high school in Newton, Massachusetts. She studies with Hanneke Cassel during the year and has worked with Alasdair Fraser and Natalie MacMaster (to name a few) over the course of many summers at fiddle camps. She also plays with 5am which is a group of five rocking fiddlers. Ari and Mia perform mostly originals and traditionals and their first CD, titled Lady and the Pants has just been released!!
