FiddleSticks Wins at the Pearl Awards!
Hi Friends,
At the Pearl Awards last night, our "Ampersand" album was named the "Contemporary Instrumental Album of the Year." Katie got to stand onstage and accept the accolades. She used her 60 seconds of fame to "thank the academy" and make a pitch for independent music, in front of an adoring, star-studded audience. Here's a photo of Katie holding the actual award. (That thing looks lethal! Is it ironic that the "Pearl Award" is about as sharp and angular and non pearl-like a form as you could imagine?)
You can read more about the Pearl Awards and see the other winners here: www.pearlawards.org (they have promised to post a summary of this year's event at the site, but it wasn't there just now when I was writing this...)
Ampersand, if you haven't heard it yet, is an eclectic mix of Celtic, bluegrass, folk and old time tunes, written, arranged and performed for fiddle and cello by Katie and Liz (with backup from the rest of us). (To have a listen, click over to our at our CDBaby site.)
