The two became acquainted with each other in 1990 and a year later entered the Lowell Fiddle Contest where they took second place in the twin fiddling category. As The Fiddleheads Band they have produced two CDs and currently perform throughout New England with backup musicians Craig Jester on keyboard, bass, accordion, and vocals, and Richard Danahy who plays guitar and sings. This performance is part of the 1999-2000 New Hampshire College Spectrum Series of plays, lectures, films and other cultural events.
