We are sad to see Fiddlin’ Rich go, but are happy to introduce you to our new fiddle player, Michelle Lambert. Like Rich, Michelle doesn’t just tear it up on the fiddle, but she sings too. She’s going to provide some solid back ground vocals. But wait, that’s not all! Michelle is also a clog dancer. You probably won’t get to see any of that at one of our shows, but it’s still pretty cool, isn’t it?
Here’s some more info on Michelle. She’s one talented young lady!
Michelle Lambert is a fiddler, clogdancer, singer, songwriter and an inspiration to her students. As a Round Valley musicmaker and a Northern California entertainer (who is now in Boston studying at Berklee), she works diligently creating music and building her repertoire of songs—bluegrass, country, rock and pop originals. Keyboard, drums, electronic music-making and recording equipment are her tools.
The youngest of six children, Michelle was born and raised in Round Valley. She learned her music from local artists: Donna Lim, violin; Mildred Pinkham, voice and piano; Kevin Wells, drums, songwriting and Gary Bowman, bluegrass band! She took what she learned and worked persistently with it. Her inspiration? Just trying to keep up with her brothers and sister.
You can read more about Michelle on her website.
Welcome the the Red Clay Rascals, Michelle!
You can see her live at our upcoming shows in Boston and at the Bull Run.
