About
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.
