"Female fire on the fiddle"

April Verch, says the Star-Phoenix of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, plays her instrument "with a kind of controlled aggression." With five albums to her credit by her mid-20s, Verch is steeped in the fiddling and step-dancing traditions of her native northeastern Ontario with their vibrant mixture of Anglo, French, and Celtic roots. Verch studied fiddling at Boston's Berklee College of Music with inveterate innovators Matt Glaser and Darol Anger. She began to follow an incredible variety of musical inspirations, and the result is a concert evening that might include anything from Canadian fiddle traditions to music of Louisiana. April has drawn comparisons to Natalie MacMaster and Mark O'Connor, but her fiddle show has an energy that's all her own. She has a new and as-yet-untitled album ready to go--come and check it out!
