  • “Oh my god, it’s amazing. Best one yet. You have to check this place out.”
    — Conor W. / age 34

  • “I’m used to going to camps and it being mostly one style. I love how there’s jazz, bluegrass, swing and a bit of old-time all in the same place. It’s really cool. I’m really glad to learn these things I wouldn’t otherwise be exposed to.”
    — Adah K. / age 15

  • “I LOVED the selection of teachers, how you all complemented each other but kept your unique voices. What an experience. I’ll be back as many times as you’ll have me!!”

  • “The Tech Lab and vendor area rocks! It was an incredible opportunity to see and try everything in one place and with real experts there to answer questions. Thank you!” — David B. / age 63

“I’ve always been drawn to musicians with different approaches, regardless of whether they played the fiddle. This same curiosity and search for inspiration has led to my love of travel and immersion in other cultures. And from my many years at camps as a student and instructor, I’ve had so many fond memories and profound moments. It’s this sense of adventure, discovery, and community I hope to bring together at Blue Ridge Fiddle Camp to create something truly special.”
