For over
twenty years, Kendra MacGillivray has brought fiddle music
to life with her incredibly energetic performances with the
fiddle. As a former Highland dancer, Kendra aims to make her
fiddling lively and dancable with upbeat jigs, polkas and
hornpipes, beautiful swaying waltzes and slow airs or
selections of rhythmic strathspeys and reels that build in
speed and intensity. She’s even been known to make a few
steps while fiddling at the same time in high heels!
"This
Antigonish-born troubadour has the drive, talent and passion
to be the next gift to the globe."
- Paul Kennedy, Country Music News
With
numerous awards under her belt, including two prestigious
East Coast Music Awards, including "Female Artist of the
Year" and "Instrumental Artist of the Year" in 2002, Kendra
travels the country, playing the traditional fiddling style
from Eastern Nova Scotia. Performances have also taken her
into the United States and as far away as Japan, Australia,
Iceland, Europe, Barbados and of course, Scotland, where
many of her favourite tunes were composed by fiddlers such
as James Scott Skinner in the 1800s and 1900s...
