ANDREA HOAG
Fire & Water
Azalea City ACCD-9902 (1999)
Top-class fiddler playing, with fine old-timey fun and swing, interesting and
varied traditional and original repertoire with Appalachian, Swedish and British
roots. Spot-on accompaniments on piano, banjo, fiddle, guitar etc. by Jacqueline
Schwab, Bruce Molsky et al. Eminently enjoyable as an album, not just as smart
fiddling.
