I was classically trained as a child, but I truly found my passion in traditional Scottish fiddle music. I love that music connects people, and that it has a place for everyone, no matter their background or experience.

I teach one-on-one violin lessons focused on folk and contemporary styles. My teaching blends learning by ear and reading music - I believe both are valuable skills for becoming a confident, well-rounded musician. I also run a twice-weekly preschool class called Magical Music with Erica - one of the most joyful parts of my week. Seeing wee ones light up through rhythm, song and movement reminds me why I started making music in the first place.

You can find out more information about Magical Music from the Turn Up The Music website. Classes run on Mondays and Wednesdays at 10am.

Alongside teaching, I perform regularly for weddings, special events and pub gigs, and love collaborating with other artists on stage and in the studio. Whether I’m playing for a lively crowd or a quiet classroom, my goal is always the same: to keep the joy of music alive, nurture wellbeing, and help others experience the connection that music brings.
