Robin Fischer is a fiddler, square dance caller, music teacher, and community organizer based in Berkeley, CA.
*** Robin is one of the premier voices amongst California square dance callers. A lover of high energy, dance-inspiring old time music, she calls in the traditional style - no lessons, no levels, no prerecorded music, just a live band and emphasis on everyone having a good time. Robin has called dances up and down the west coast, including at the Berkeley Old Time Music Convention, The CBA Father’s Day Bluegrass Festival, Los Angeles Old Time Social, Austin Stringband Festival, and community dances from Portland to San Diego. *** Robin's fiddling is rooted in old-time, bluegrass, and country styles. Her musicianship is guided by an appreciation for grove, tone, and drive above all else, she loves digging out that old time stringband sound. She is available for beginning and intermediate fiddle lessons for adults and children. Establishing a love of fiddle music, proper technique, and building musical community are the guiding principles behind her lessons. *** To schedule a lesson, square dance, or performance contact: robin.r.fischer [at] gmail.com |
