Originally from Tatamagouche, Nova Scotia, Julie has travelled extensively throughout Canada and the United States but has never lost connection with her roots on Nova Scotia’s North Shore.
"I have been teaching fiddle for almost as long as I can remember. I have had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life and I never get tired of helping people to discover a new talent or accomplish something that has always been on their bucket list".
I learned this tune from an old recording of Carl Elliott. It has quickly become one of my favourite tunes to play!
This is a fun swing tune composed by legendary Canadian fiddler Graham Townsend.
This tune was composed by my dear friend Emily Kierstead. Emily's vibrant daughter Lisa McCully was one of the precious lives tragically taken in the Portapique, Nova Scotia, tragedy in April of 2020. 💔 Lisa was a bright light in the lives of those who knew her, including myself and my daughter, Ashlyn, who benefited from Lisa's passion as a dedicated, loving teacher. The tune is called 'A Lament for Humanity'. This video was originally recorded as part of a fundraiser last year.
