  Chase the Fiddlers is an ensemble
  dedicated to developing a repertoire of
  fiddle music and song to share on and off
  campus. Lewiston being the heavily
  Franco-American community that it is, the
  traditional French-Canadian fiddle music
  of this area is central to our tune list, 
  which also delves into Irish, bluegrass
  and old-time dance music and song, and
  all other music our various members bring
  to the table. Fiddles are especially
  wanted, while all other melodic and
  percussive instruments are also
  encouraged to join. No auditions.


Feel free to contact Greg Boardman, director at gboardman@lewnet.avcnet.org if you have any further questions regarding Chase the Fiddlers.
