Event Description
Medusa Quartet - get ready to stomp your feet, laugh, cry, and hear sounds you've never heard before with this electrifying chamber-folk band! Wielding forgotten fiddles that could turn classical music scholars to stone, these four folk musicians are reimagining the Western string quartet.
Medusa Quartet’s dynamic arrangement style cross-pollinates traditional music from around the world with original tunes, engaging stories, and their one-of-a-kind stringed instruments to create a "must-see live show!" (Sam Boer, Exclaim!).
Nominated for 2024 “Instrumental Group of the Year” Canadian Folk Music Award for their debut self titled EP, Medusa Quartet is Georgia Hathaway, Lea Kirstein, Marta Sołek, and Saskia Tomkins.
Medusa Quartet has toured across Canada including shows at Roy Thomson Hall, Blue Skies festival, and the Rogue Folk Club. Their music has been featured numerous times on CBC radio and their album was featured as one of Roots Music Canada’s favorite new discoveries of 2023.
