Ellen Carlson is a fine fiddler who showcases her varied styles with some of the finest musicians in New England. Reviews of past albums: "...Ellen Carlson, whose sweet-toned instrument soars throughout this recording." (Steve Goldfield, Bluegrass Unlimited). "Then the CD hit the player and all bets were off. A sinuous fiddle line snaked out of the speaker. 'Hmmm, they got Vassar to do the session with them,' I thought. Nope, it's an exceptionally talented musician named Ellen Carlson, who's incorporated the best elements of Vassar's unique style into her own highly melodic playing." (David McCarthy, Bluegrass Unlimited). "My favorite musician on this album is Ellen Carlson. She seems to be everywhere and everything she plays seems to fit perfectly" (Kris Garnjost, Jam Music Magazine). "Carlson's fiddle work is really cool -- all over the place and improvisational." (Sam Pfeifle, The Portland Phoenix)
