Aisha Ivey started and directs the Old Time Ensemble at Florida State University. A champion fiddler, Aisha has won the Southeastern United States Scottish Fiddle Championship for ten years in a row and she has also won awards and ribbons for her Irish, Old-Time, and Scandinavian fiddling. She even won the award for ‘Best March’ at the 2010 National Scottish Fiddle Competition in Williamsburg, Virginia. Several of Aisha’s fiddle students have won awards at state, regional and national fiddle contests. Conner Bacon started his musical career as part of the old-time music ensemble at SAIL high school and has been honing his chops ever since; he will accompany Aisha on the guitar.

John Ross will join on flute for the first set. He is part of Aisha & Conner's Celtic trio, Cuttin' Bracken, and expect an occasional special guest singer, Annapoorna.
