Jaime RT has returned to her birth name, Zavallennahh (Zav for short)! June 24th she is playing a house concert on Salt Spring with her incredibly talented brother, singer/songwriter/guitarist Daniel Huscroft, before heading into the studio with him. June 26-28 Zav & Andy are at Midsummer festival in Smithers! Then it's off to the NWT in July.
Check out Zav's latest CD, "Spark"!
Spark
showcases Zav RT’s new instrument – the 5-string
viola that she has lovingly penned the “fiddola” – a
new musical partner in guitarist Andy Hillhouse and her dedication
to exploring a variety of musical styles. Ten original compositions
and two well-chosen cover tunes that feature Andy on vocals are
spiced with flavours from the folk, celtic and world music genres.
A jig is layered with a funk groove, traditional fiddle tunes carry
elements of jazz and an instrumental duet with slide guitarist
Harry Manx touches on Eastern blues elements. Zav RT is creating
fresh, vibrant West Coast fiddle music based on an age-old tradition,
establishing a new modern branch on the folk tree. An auditory “fiddola” feast!
