Maddie Denton: IBMA Fiddle Player of The Year 2025

Send us Fan MailMaddie Denton is a young fiddle player, singer and songwriter based in Nashville. She's been with the hot young band East Nash Grass for 7 years. During that time she taught high school biology, coached their golf team, and also played with the Dan Tyminski band for 4 years. Now she's a full time musician, touring and recording with East Nash Grass. Lots of stories, from her youth winning Texas fiddle contests, making the somewhat difficult transition to bluegrass (tough playing in B and Bb!), finally being on the same concert bill as her hero Sting, and her lessons learned about improvising and playing relaxed. Enjoy!
