A couple of weeks ago, on Eoinn O'Neill's program on Clare FM, I heard a cut from a new CD by a wonderful fiddle player. Problem is, I didn't fully catch her name: Artina Fergus ??? Something like that. I believe Eoinn said she's American.
Athena comes from San Francisco - I played with her in a session in 1996 when she was about 18 and she was stunning all ways up back then. She is equally at home with Scottish, Irish and American styles - a real star.
