The Moxie Strings – Music on the Mountain – The Homestead – August 18, 2013

The Moxie Strings is the electrifying combination of fiddler, Diana Ladio, and electric cellist, Alison Lynn. With their feel-good melodies and foot-stomping, rock-influenced rhythms, these young women have put a fresh, enticing spin on Celtic and Americana music. Though rooted in tradition, the Moxie Strings offers listeners the unique opportunity to experience some of the world’s best-known instruments and oldest tunes through a young, progressive lens.

Diana and Alison often join forces with dynamic drummer an world percussion, Fritz McGirr, who lends his spirited expertise of traditional music’s percussion component,and a creative rhythmic energy to the show. The ensemble calls on bluegrass, Celtic, Canadian, rock, jazz and old time influences to create their unique, American hybrid that exemplifies the United States’ identity as a melting pot of traditions.
