The "big dream" for many singer-songwriters is to have their music used in film or TV scores. For Ernest Troost, it was the other way around. Troost became an Emmy Award-winning composer of movie and TV scores first, and only recently became an award-winning folk-blues songwriter, as well. "Songwriting was something I had put in the trunk and sat on for 20 years because it was an impractical thing to do," he said. "I hadn't done it since high school." Ernest Troost will perform at Fiddlers...
Laura Burdick moved to Stallion Springs in August with her two children Luc,14, and Corinne,12. She is very specific when she says she moved from East Lancaster. She said she wanted a safer environment for herself and her children, so she put her house on the market and began searching for a new home. She considered the western areas of Lancaster since the children’s paternal grandparents lived there but the rural setting and seasonal changes of the mountains called to her. When she found a b...

Like many of our Americana "roots" music genres, the blues has morphed many times and in many ways from its acoustic origins in the deltas and cotton fields of the steamy south to the electric rock and roll dance halls, clubs and bars in the rest of the country. It has spawned jazz, soul, R&B, rock and country music. Blues itself has become standardized, fitting nicely into eight bars or 12 bars in minor keys with a set pattern to the lyrics and chord structure, and most always a sense of...
In its nearly four years as a venue, Fiddlers Crossing has been introducing Tehachapi to a wide variety of acoustic musicians. Some are well-established favorites in blues, Celtic, bluegrass, folk and Americana. Some are bright young stars-to-be. Amber Cross is one of those singers that you'll soon enough be able to tell your friends, "I heard her first at Fiddlers Crossing." Listening to her old-school country songs and honest back porch voice has been likened to putting an archival...
Fiddlers Crossing is greeting 2014 on a high energy note with the return of Sligo Rags, a rollicking Celtic "pub" band with "a decidedly bluegrass attitude," on Saturday, Jan. 11. Sligo Rags is non-stop fun. With Michael Kelly on fiddle and vocals, David Burns on acoustic guitar, banjo, mandolin and vocals, and new member Olivier Prud'homme on bass, the group delivers foot-stomping tunes and side-splitting humor. The group is now a quartet, with the addition of percussionist Jonathan Baer, who...
