About Ivonne Hernandez and Jeremy Walsh

From the age of three, fiddler Ivonne Hernandez started playing everything from her mother�s favorite Maritime reels to her father�s Chilean folk music. Having honed her craft over the years, Ivonne is now the five-time and currently reigning Grand North American Fiddle Champion.

With his expressive vocals and energetic stage presence, the award-winning singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Jeremy Walsh is on his way to becoming a Canadian folk-music legend. Aside from his many solo tours, Jeremy has fronted the Canadian Celtic band Scruj Macduhk and is a sought after accompanist.

As a duo, Ivonne and Jeremy have toured extensively and have recently released their album Live off the Floor, showcasing a chemistry and enthusiasm that studio recordings rarely convey. Get ready to tap your toes to some lively singing, fiddling, and step dancing!
