NEWS RELEASE
*************************
Multi-instrumentalist Teilhard Frost will share Appalachian music in a stop in Cambridge on Saturday, Nov. 23, 2024, at Wesley United Church.
Originally from Manitoulin Island, Frost is also a banjo maker who now lives on Wolfe Island in the St. Lawrence River, near Kingston.
His latest solo recording, ‘Four and Twenty Blackbirds Dancing on a Deer Skin’, is a collection of traditional music found in the Appalachian highlands, early-era banjo tunes, and harmonica songs.
Frost was surrounded by fiddle tunes and old songs, farming life and the bush on Manitoulin Island. At the age of three, he was given a harmonica by his father and his great-grandfather’s fiddle from his mother. He danced ballet in his youth and would bust down with some flat-foot clogging to let loose. When Teilhard moved to the city for secondary school, he took up the baritone saxophone, traps, and percussion.
Teilhard tours the world as a solo act and with his band Sheesham, Lotus, and ‘Son. He works regularly as a studio session musician, playing many instruments, and on stage supports other musicians and dancers as a guest.
