Tahnis Cunningham and Ray Bell met at a music camp in 2008 and have been playing music together ever since. Their repertoire includes an eclectic mix of musical styles starting with old time fiddle and ranging through bluegrass, folk, and pop. Tahnis’ warm and intimate vocals are complimented by Ray’s lyrical guitar style. Tahnis has a passion for Old Time and Metis fiddle tunes and Ray is known for his impressive finger-style and dynamic flat picking. Together they have performed at events, festivals, and music camps across Western Canada.
