Biography
Meghan Dudle started classical violin
when she was five years old in the Chicagoland area, performing in
Midwest Young Artists Symphony Orchestra and other orchestras and
quartets. After experiencing The Freighthoppers one hot August MBOTMA
festival, she put down her classical violin and started to study
Appalachian, blues and hillbilly swing fiddle in 2000. Before joining
Kari Larson and Lisa Schultz of The Ditchlilies in 2003, she played
country blues fiddle with Lonesome Dan Kase as well as singing and
playing in the old-time duo, The Phonola Winders, with New Bad Habit’s
Tim Foss. Somewhere in between the years, she learned rhythm guitar and harmony singing. Playing fiddle with The
Ditchlilies from 2003-2008, she has shared festival stages with Pete
Seeger, The Dirk Powell Band, The Everybodyfields, Lost Bayou Ramblers,
Hunger Mountain Boys, Dale Ann Bradley, and Valerie Smith and Liberty
Pike. Her new solo album puts together a wide variety of classic
American fiddle tunes alongside original compositions and songs. She
continues to break many a horse hair playing for square dances around
the Midwest and dances and choreographs with the internationally known
clogging group, The Wild Goose Chase Cloggers.
