Vince Conaway wrote on Facebook: "When I started playing faires in the nineties I was told that I'd missed the high water mark of the eighties. Now I see people in the community romanticizing the nineties and oughts and can't help but think that we need to focus on the present and remember that we're currently living someone's golden age."

Today, we meet Liesel Wilson. Liesel has been playing fiddle/violin for most of her life. She began playing Chinese erhu during her Chinese language studies in high school and college. She specializes in singing in languages besides English, including Mandarin Chinese, Gàidhlig, Irish, Early Scots, Russian, Spanish, and Welsh. She is a former member of Blue Canvas Orchestra and Chance Ensemble. She has performed throughout the U.S. and Scotland as a member of Willowgreen. They were added to the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast last year along with her own solo music.
