Violinist and harmony singer Sara joined our band earlier this year. Although her background included classical training and membership in the string section of the civic orchestra, she was drawn to the Bluegrass music genre and our fun-filled Thursday evening jam sessions where she is seen below kneeling front right.
Sara devotedly studied and promptly mastered classic fiddle tunes while seamlessly merging into our ensemble with her songbird voice. As pictured below (far right), she has become a regular and valued performer on Sunday afternoons at our brewpub gigs benefiting the Children`s Hospital.
In recognition of her upbeat and skillful commitment to the G&F band and its musical endeavors, Sara was recently presented with a hand-crafted BRC workshop smartphone holder during one of our weekly evening jam sessions.
Our newest fiddler is seen below holding her gifted cell perch (arrow), and we are all grateful that she has brought her music and song to us and our listeners. Away from the band, she is a busy equestrian and falconry aficianando.
Stage center at the feet of her animal-loving master, Sara’s dog named “Peanut” rests quietly while the band performs a Sunday afternoon gig at the brewpub. Despite upbeat hoedown tunes, throaty group vocals, and rounds of solo musicianship, the canine dozed and was unmoved by the onstage hubbub.
From the BRC: Happy Holidays to all our readers and Best Wishes in 2024.
