Maureen Reich
Fiddle, Mandolin, Tenor Banjo Maureen's parents immigrated from County Mayo, Ireland and met in Cleveland's Irish American Club. "For as long as I can remember, Ireland was Home. Step dancing wasn't a possibility, but my parents handed me a violin and sent me to Tom McCaffrey for Irish fiddle lessons. It took me a couple decades before I pulled that fiddle out along with Tom's books, and realized this music is a part of the fabric of my life, and I can't be without it." |
