The Poor Cousins
Приєднався 25 січ 2017
Naomi Morse (fiddle, voice) and Emmet Mc Gowan (guitar, voice) have been playing music together since they met in York, England in 2006. Based in Vermont, the duo performs various styles of roots music including American old time, New England, Irish, Quebecois, and Scottish as well as their own arrangements of classical and popular pieces.
At home on both sides of the Atlantic, the husband and wife duo combine intimate, nourishing songs and gutsy tunes in an easy-going style. On fiddle, Naomi finds sounds both fiery and flowing, blending seamlessly with Emmet's rhythmic and elegant guitar back-up.
In addition to a regular performance schedule in New England, the duo have performed in many countries around the world, both together and separately. They traveled to Greece in August 2017 on a US State Department grant to perform and teach at the Kozani International Music Seminar.

Love this version! Bravo!
I played along to this on my concertina, it synched beautifully with the violin.
Fantastic sound. For once the algorithm pointed me in the right direction. Was watching Kilt and Great Big Sea before. Glad to make your acquaintance.
You're very welcome.
Outside of Luke's own vocal, yours is the most moving and best arranged that I have ever heard.
Well thank you very much Dan.
Wow. Thanks!
The raining leaves 🥰 over the rainbow 🌈
Some of them were coming down like fried eggs...
Both of these artists are excellent and complement each other beautifully.
Thanks so much!
This is such a good mix of the softer rendition of this song and the more energetic rendition! The violin is so beautifully melodic and sung, and the vocals get me up on my feet dancing!
Thanks so much for your kind words. Always good to hear we're helping people dance.
Lovely version of this great classic song.
Thanks!

19 Titel auf ihrem kleinen Kanal seit ein paar Jahren. So schlicht und schön die Lieder. Genau das macht es aus. Mich begeistert das sehr. ☘️❤️☘️ 19 titles on their small channel for a few years. The songs are so simple and beautiful. That's exactly what it's all about. I am very excited about that in Germany, Isle of Rügen.
Ich habe hier fast alle Titel durchgehört. Die Lieder sind so schön interpretiert durch viel Herz und die Unkompliziertheit. Großartig! Grüße von der Insel Rügen. I've listened to almost all the titles here. The songs are so beautifully interpreted by a lot of heart and the simplicity. Great! Greetings from the island of Rügen. Abo+🔔

Magnifique ! Merci !

My favorite Irish tune! ❤
It's a good one, for sure. :-)

Beautiful song, great playing! 🎻🎸🎤
