About the artist: 

Laurel Premo is known for her rhythmically deep and rapt delivery of  roots music on fiddle, guitar, banjo and vocals. Her solo performances  dive deep into traditional and new fiddle music, musically revealing a  bloom of underlying harmonic drones, minimalist repetition, and rich  polyrhythms. Presenting these sounds mainly on finger style electric  guitar and fiddle, Premo fully leans into the archaic melodies and  in-between intonations that connect folk sounds to the mystic and  unknown. She is a Michigan-based artist who has been writing, arranging,  and touring since 2009 with vocal and instrumental roots acts, and is  internationally known from her duo Red Tail Ring. Premo holds a BFA from  the Performing Arts Technology Dept. of the University of Michigan  School of Music, and has spent half-year stints at both the Sibelius  Academy of Music in Helsinki, Finland and the University College of  Southeast Norway in Telemark to study traditional music and dance.  Important mentors who have helped shape Laurel’s lens in folk arts have  been her parents Bette & Dean Premo (fiddle, guitar, and traditional  song, Michigan), Joel Mabus (clawhammer banjo, Michigan), Arto Järvelä  (fiddle, Finland), and Ånon Egeland (fiddle, Norway). Alongside several  continuing music projects, she is active in organizing community events  that connect people with folk art and dance.
