Catapult! Velocipede (2014)

Profile:

Faster than a T-Rex, more cunning than a muskrat, and far more appetizing than your local barbecue joint, Velocipede brings you fiddle tunes like never before.

Hailing from the great state of Maine, Julia Plumb and Baron Collins-Hill play fiddle tunes from around the world for contra dances, concert halls, coffee houses, and doughnut factories throughout the country. They play with a tight, close sound, staying true to the tunes and bolstering them with with driving dance rhythms and sweet harmonies.

Julia and Baron met at Maine Fiddle Camp in 2008. Once they began playing together, the tunes came flooding uncontrollably out of their fingers. They played through the day and through the night, played while the mosquitoes bit and the shooting stars fell, played until the turtles and fish and herons danced out of the lake and the sun rose. They are still playing.

"Like a well oiled machine… with feelings!"
