Peghead Nation’s Clawhammer Banjo teacher Evie Ladin grew up surrounded by traditional Appalachian and other folk music and dance, but her recordings have primarily reflected her songwriting and expansive string band sound. Performing and teaching often within the traditional milieu, she recorded her album Riding the Rooster with 17 old-time fiddlers from across the country. In this video, she plays Ward Jarvis’ “Icy Mountain” with one of those fiddlers, Emily Mann, who is a member of the Crooked Jades and half of the duo Paper Wings. www.evieladin.com
