The first time I heard Bronwyn Keith-Hynes play the fiddle was at a concert with Molly Tuttle and The Golden Highway, when the band was making their debut to the bluegrass scene, and I was just beginning to explore the world of bluegrass. As a young violin student, I’d heard a lot of people play the fiddle, but never the way Bronwyn did. Her spirit-filled improvisation and captivating performance made it seem almost like her fiddle and body had melded into one. She immediately became my fiddle-idol, and the reason I fell in love with bluegrass.
