| Sun Mountain Fiddler
|
Born in New York City, Dick Solberg was trained
classically on the piano and the violin, but when he encountered "fiddling" in styles like old-timey, bluegrass, Celtic,
and Cajun, he was hooked. The Sun Mountain Fiddler identifies his roots in bluegrass, Irish folk, jazz, western swing,
reggae, and Cajun, all of which are reflected in the live performances of The Sun Mountain Band, with a smattering of
eclectic originals thrown in for good measure. As his career takes him around the country and the world, he shares his interpretations and inspiration with anyone lucky enough to hear him.
