Nora Brown with Stephanie Coleman

Banjo prodigy Nora Brown first debuted on our stage in 2022. Now, this “must-see artist” (The Boston Globe) returns with master fiddler Stephanie Coleman, offering a reverent and spirited approach to Appalachian folk music. Shaped by years of shared musical exploration, the award-winning duo plays “with consistent flair and an audible mastery of their instruments” (Folk Radio UK), pushing each other creatively while remaining deeply connected to the heart of the tradition. Joined by percussionist James Shipp, they infuse the rich storytelling of old-time music with fresh energy.
