Maine’s Largest Fiddle Orchestra, led by National Heritage Fellow, Don Roy takes to the stage for their 15th concert season. Joined by special guests, along with singing and dancing, an entertainment super nova that is sure to delight all audience members and leave a smile in their hearts and a tap in their toes.
Join Fiddle-icious, a non-profit, all volunteer community orchestra with members from Kittery to Augusta, as they take to the stage to share their uplifting music. Fiddle-icious is a large and vibrant group of Maine musicians playing fiddle, piano, harp, guitar, banjo, accordion, cello, tin whistle, concertina and upright bass. Their tunes are passed on from the Irish, Scottish, Quebecois and Acadian traditions and include reels, jigs, marches, hornpipes, waltzes, step-dancing and singing.
Director Roy, a designated Master Fiddler from Gorham, ME, hailed as a “living cultural treasure” Fiddle-icious brings their unique brand of energy and joy to the stage. Keeping the heartbeat of the group even and steady on piano is Don’s wife and musical partner, Cindy Roy. Both Don and Cindy grew up in French-Canadian families, where music was an integral part of their lives. Don and Cindy continue to share their knowledge, foster community, and provide a place for musicians and audiences alike to take part in the ageless spirit of the old-fashioned kitchen party, keeping the musical heritage alive and well for future generations.
