I must say I was scanning channels one evening and came upon these women (and guys) on PBS (which I rarely watch) and I was stunned by the beauty, talent and overall production (especially the last song) in which these woman (and associates) performed. Very talented and attractive young people.... and I kinda liked the music too.

That is good stuff. I have watched that on PBS as well. They need a little banjo in there and then they would have something.

and, in my book they are all beautiful young women. unlike most of the ones in the "boobie" thread. these are all a pleasure to look at.  and the music(voice and instrument) is outstanding also.

My understanding is that fiddles are only found in the deep south where the color of grass is Blue. The rest of the world has violins. One of my favorites that is comparable to the Celtic Women: Vanessa Mae.
And here is one of those little-known  country boy fiddle players:

I like most of the celtic women stuff but sometimes its almost too polished. This is more traditional (Karen Matheson of Capercaille and Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh of Altan). There's some fiddle playing in the middle. -RP
