Don RoyAt the forefront of the Franco American community, one finds the musical duo of Don and Cindy Roy who have long entertained audiences in the Greater Portland area. Don is a champion fiddler with depth in many styles of fiddling. Hailing from roots deep in the Maritimes and Quebec, The Roys' musical passion lies with the French Canadian tradition followed closely by Celtic music. Don has been a member of many successful groups including bluegrass, Irish, and French and has directed The Maine French Fiddlers since 1988. Don also received a Fellowship award from Maine Arts in 1994 for excellence in traditional music.

Also a member of The Maine French Fiddlers, Cindy is well known for her piano accompaniment which is among the best in New England. Augmented by her "rhythmic feet" she adds life and enthusiasm to the music.

Also members of House Island and Fiddle Box, two other leading groups of traditional music, Cindy and Don will entertain you with a blend of fiddle and piano styles that is common to traditional musicians of Maine.
