Andrew Finn Magill

For twenty years violinist/fiddler and composer Andrew Finn Magill has been pursuing parallel careers in traditional Irish music, Brazilian choro, jazz and American fiddle and he has performed with everyone from grammy-nominees Trio Brasileiro to Rising Appalachia. He has been featured on MTV, NPR, is a 2019 North Carolina Arts Fellow and has over a million streams on Spotify. Magill's fifth studio album Canta, Violino! which was released on Ropeadope Records in 2018, is a Brazilian music-inspired project that traverses samba, choro, Música Popular Brasileira (MPB) and more.

“It’s nice to see fresh, young musicians carrying on the traditions of Brazilian music. Finn Magill displays a love and authenticity that can fool you into thinking he is from Brazil. His style is playful and light, yet soulful and passionate. Congratulations!” - Airto Moreira (Miles Davis, Weather Report, Chick Corea) "Serene and incredibly soulful, North Carolina fiddler Andrew Finn Magill encounters the tradition in a manner reminiscent of Keith Jarrett on The Melody at Night With You." - The Irish Times "Magill’s fresh, clear tones calls to mind Stéphane Grappelli...” - Songlines Magazine
