Joanne fuels her music with her love of dance, mixing her pervasive passion for Scottish culture with the drive and rhythms of the New England dance floor. Ten musical years in Montreal and two in Scotland provided influence and inspiration in her formative years. Now a resident of Montpelier, Vermont, Joanne plays in sessions, teaches music and dance to kids and adults, performs on stage with The Turning Stile and other string groups, and of course, steps out on the dance floor. When not playing the fiddle, or even while playing the fiddle, Joanne works as an urban forester for the State of Vermont.
