About

I'm a multi-instrumentalist who has performed full time for over 20 years on violin, fiddle, celtic flute, banjo, accordion, pennywhistle, and piano. I specialize in lively ethnic music: celtic, cajun, zydeco, bluegrass, Irish, Scottish, French Canadian, and more. I enjoy playing everything from back ground music for business functions, for weddings, and main stage performances with a band. My music is suitable for family audiences.

I can perform solo, as a duo with my son as "The Fiddling Thomsons," or provide a band of various sizes. I also teach cajun dancing, and call contra and square dances. I've won numerous awards for my music making, on fiddle, banjo, and accordion, including a Boston Music Award Nomination for my accordion playing with my cajun band, the Northeast Regional award at the National Fiddle Contest and I've been designated a 'Master Traditional Artist,' by The New Hampshire Council on the Arts. I'm reliable, sociable. and hard working.
