Naomi Morse (fiddle, voice) and Emmet Mc Gowan (guitar, voice) have been playing music together since they met in York, England in 2006. Based in Vermont, the duo performs various styles of roots music including American old time, New England, Irish, Quebecois, and Scottish as well as their own arrangements of classical and popular pieces.
At home on both sides of the Atlantic, the husband and wife duo combine intimate, nourishing songs and gutsy tunes in an easy-going style. On fiddle, Naomi finds sounds both fiery and flowing, blending seamlessly with Emmet's rhythmic and elegant guitar back-up.
In addition to a regular performance schedule in New England, the duo have performed in many countries around the world, both together and separately. They traveled to Greece in August 2017 on a US State Department grant to perform and teach at the Kozani International Music Seminar.
This is such a good mix of the softer rendition of this song and the more energetic rendition! The violin is so beautifully melodic and sung, and the vocals get me up on my feet dancing!
I have been listening to many of your pieces on loop - especially this one - but only just learnt you were based in Vermont -- as am I. My heart is bursting!
19 Titel auf ihrem kleinen Kanal seit ein paar Jahren. So schlicht und schön die Lieder. Genau das macht es aus. Mich begeistert das sehr. ☘️❤️☘️ 19 titles on their small channel for a few years. The songs are so simple and beautiful. That's exactly what it's all about. I am very excited about that in Germany, Isle of Rügen.
Ich habe hier fast alle Titel durchgehört. Die Lieder sind so schön interpretiert durch viel Herz und die Unkompliziertheit. Großartig! Grüße von der Insel Rügen. I've listened to almost all the titles here. The songs are so beautifully interpreted by a lot of heart and the simplicity. Great! Greetings from the island of Rügen. Abo+🔔
One of the first songs I learned of fiddle. Needless to say, I was gushing when I first heard it playing in the background in Assassin's Creed: Black Flag.
@@thepoorcousinsThe tune is mid 17th century English - 'The Clean Contrary Way'. It turns up in many English folk songs such as 'Dives and Lazerus' and 'The Unquiet Grave'.
