I have just returned from a wonderful week at Ashokan fiddle camp to study, play, and hang out with some fantastic musicians including Dirk Powell, Riley Baugus, Rafe Stefanini, Red Stick Ramblers, Jay Ungar and Molly Mason. What a blast!
I am glad to share with you some fall dates with all three of my bands: Mayfly (www.myspace.com/mayflygirls) , Katie Trautz and the Tall Boys (New Band Name coming soon!) (www.katietrautz.com), and Wooden Dinosaur (www.woodendinosaur.tumblr.com). I have been playing tons of old time music, and will be playing some shows and dances with a new stringband. Keep your eyes and ears out for this one....
Also- Mayfly records a new album this fall! We're so excited to share our new songs and fiddle tunes with you. More news about this to come....and we will be opening for Dirk Powell and Riley Baugus in January at the Montpelier Folk Music Festival hosted by the Summit School of Traditional Music and Culture: www.summit-school.org. We will be sending along a kickstarter video for support for this festival soon...
*I have moved on from the directorship at the Summit School of Traditional Music and Culture (www.summit-school.org), but will remain on the board of directors as an artistic director, and I will work as a fiddle and singing teacher for the school. I am very excited to announce that I have signed on to work with Charisma Artist Agency (www.charismaartist.com). It's an honor to be on their team of musicians and agents! Hope to see you soon! -Katie
