Cynthia MacLeod Joins 'Follow the Fiddler' Cast.

May 03, 2010

Cynthia has built an international reputation  that has taken her around the world – from the community halls of Prince Edward Island to the World Expo stage in Aichi, Japan. Fellow musicians have awarded her more than a dozen Music PEI awards, including multiple awards as Roots/Traditional Artist of the Year and Instrumental Artist of the Year. Audiences have also twice chosen her as Entertainer of the Year.

She has also produced three critically acclaimed (and top-selling) CDs. "Head Over Heels" (2002) won her instant credibility with a hard-bitten music industry and was named Album of the Year. Her second CD, "Crackerjack" (2004), built on her growing reputation as a precise, lively interpreter of traditional fiddle music. "Hot Off The Floor" (2007) combined that traditional sound with newer compositions and cemented McLeod's  place among the very best in East Coast fiddle music.
