Ep. 30 "Lissa Schneckenburger" (New England Fiddler, Folk Singer & Recording Artist)
Welcome to the episode 30 of "Women In The Music Industry", a podcast that shines a spotlight on the remarkable women who are breaking barriers and making their mark in an industry that has long been dominated by men.
My guest today is none other than New England fiddler, folk singer & recording artist, Lissa Schneckenburger.
Over the last several decades Lissa has made music that has showcased everything from traditional New England dance tunes, to original songs inspired by her experience as a foster and adoptive parent. To date she has released 12 albums worldwide.
Her latest album “Falling Forward” has blended her love of traditional music with her love of writing, in her first fiddle forward album in over a decade.
Raised in a small town in Maine, Schneckenburger grew up with music. She began playing fiddle at the age of six, inspired by her parent's interest in folk music. In 2001 she graduated from the New England Conservatory of Music with a degree in Contemporary Improvisation. She has been writing, performing, and teaching music around the world ever since.
