PORTAGE is a new “super-group” of fiddlers/multi-instrumentalists/singers from across Canada bringing you old and new music in a collective artistic adventure. High energy fiddling from many traditions meets innovative arrangements combining vocals, guitar, cello, piano, bones, feet and more. The members of Portage are rooted in Newfoundland & Labrador, Quebec, Ontario, the Prairies, Appalachia and the West Coast. Portage is: Erynn Marshall, Laura Risk, Christina Smith, Alanna Jennish and Anne Lederman.
At a Portage concert, you will be greeted by a rich palette of sounds and moods from many of the great folk fiddle traditions of North America. This includes intimate and reflective meditations through jaunty jigs and high-powered flat-out go-for-broke reels, rendered on various combinations of fiddles in lush and unusual harmonies along with cello, guitar, piano and some stirring vocals drawn from the same roots. You will feel that you are part of the action from the get, being swept along in the maelstrom of folk tradition where rhythm rules. Their music invigorates and inspires. Join us for “singing, dancing and all sorts of fun."
