I had the distinct pleasure of taking a 3-day class from Allison at Grass Valley (just prior to the California Bluegrass Association's Father's Day Festival) in 2019. Tatiana was the teacher for the fiddle class. On the last day, the 2 classes met together, and played the one tune that both classes had worked on separately. Then the students played one-on-one with the teacher of the other instrument. I was REALLY intimidated playing banjo to Tatiana's fiddle! But a wonderful learning experience. And two very wonderful people as teachers!
Saw them last night at the Transatlantic Sessions in Edinburgh. Incredible! Stole the show from a extremely talented line up. Can't get enough of their music. 😍
They play so well together. Just love this show .would of liked to have been at this show.i hear they are coming out with a cd. Can't wait to hear it. know it will be great

Thanks for the list. Are their different "Eighth of January" tunes? That doesn't sound like the one I've heard. I know their can be variants of tunes, like with "Angeline the baker" etc. I'm not a fiddler, though, so I'm not very acquainted with this stuff.
Quick Statistic that i had to read 5 times just to be sure- " but New York did a study in its penitentiary system and found that 67 PERCENT of incarcerated women were there for killing someone who was abusing them." this is staggering to me, and speaks to Alices song about how Joan Littles story is still relevant today. I honestly havent done any follow up research on that statement but Here is the interview that i Highly recommend reading. special invite to the men reading this "The Most Dangerous Place- Rachel Louise Snyder on the persistent problem of Domestic Violence.
@@svenlittlecross It was in one of Mark’s Sirius FM shows where he plays some his favorite music, including Tatiana. I believe you can find that particular episode here on YT if it has not been removed (try searching for Knopfler Sirius).

Saw them at Wintergrass in Bellevue, WA on 2/25/23 - so impressive!
What a glorious combination of fiddle and banjo. Thanks Allison and Tatiana.

Last one brought a tear to my eye, pure joy. Thanks for the incredible upload and defiintely hope to catch these two when I'm back stateside.
wow. fantastic. love the rapport between musicians having fun
Awesome! I had an impromptu conversation with Allison on the T about five years ago. :)
Great to join this intimate concert. As a fan of Alison i truely appreciated that her banjo playing was wel amplified. Thnx.
the concert was all acoustic. no amplification. mic was for recording only
Amazing! Thanks for share those videos, I hope can be in person listening someday. Cheers from Argentina!
Awesome! Just love the way Allison enjoys herself playing.
Thank you Lord for these 2!!!
ostrich with pearls is a lovely, jovial composition.
Great musicians playing great tunes. Thanks
Yes, thanks for the concert.
Love this so much! Two of my favorite player/pickers.
Thank You for the lovely great art. Donald Fransson Sweden

Loved every minute. Great performance and camera/audio. Isolation never was so fine until now!
Wonderful music! Completely moved my spirit listening to them.

thank you for posting this
'Boyne Water' seems to have an Irish rather than a Scottish lilt. Lovely playing (and flatfooting!).
an old loyalist tune from the north of Ireland prob 17th century
Can anyone recommend similar duos? (I know they are one of a kind, but anything even close to their level would be great)
Little Nora Brown and Stephanie Coleman. Sublime!
Is Allison playing a Romero banjo?
Mark Knopfler brings me here... he was right, sounds great!
where does he talks about it?

And here's a video of Allison jamming at Clifftop. Bruce Molsky walks up, sits down, and listens!

33:35 there’s a guy sleeping in the front row lol how come
He’s not asleep, he’s focusing on the music. Notice his foot keeping time to the music.
Not too keen I'm afraid.Too loud for me, even with sound turned down!!
The boy on the right is quite the fiddle player.
