As a young teen, I spent my summers roaming between fiddle camps and festivals, following my idols and soaking up every note they played. I stayed up all night jamming with friends I’d just met, learned tunes from traditional masters, and for the rest of the year, would dream of the moment one of my heroes sat down and traded solos with me.
When the Fretless arrived at the Pure Dead Brilliant camp outside of Boston, I could feel the familiar, feverish energy of fiddle tunes waiting to burst from the fingers of every attendee. I felt a nostalgic hint of nerves when my hero Natalie MacMaster began jamming tunes beside me, and a new emotional wave of astonishment and pride as a few young folks began ripping into a Fretless tune. What an honour to be in the middle of this beautiful cycle of inspiration.
As a reflection of the caring and encouraging community of folk music, the melody of Lost Lake flows seamlessly from the rippling voice of a lead fiddle tune, to the supportive fabric of an accompanying ostinato.
It is named for the teachers, students and organisers of the PDB fiddle camp, which takes place on the banks of Lost Lake. You’ve all inspired me more than you know.

Transcendent.
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING
Flowing babbbyyyyyyy 🍃
WOOOOOOOOOOOO It's gonna be in my head for the next couple weeks... such a fun dance with some scales, twisting and moving. Love it!
"Pretty good" - serious understatement!
Thanks for listening! We loved bringing this piece to life.
There is such an impressive synergy in your work together. I am looking forward to the new album.
Bottomless
So good ✨🥹🤘
New summer jam
🔥🤘🤘🔥
I'd love for you guys to tour in the US (specifically in the southern US) :). Huge fan.
Wonderful bluegrass take on Macleod's Farewell.
I'm already hooked, bring it!
Going to see these in Edinburgh next week can't wait, remind me of a group I saw at cropredy called the moullettes
Very talented
Canada's Explosions in the Sky. Very cool.
Sensational musicians.
Heard this on Dandelion Radio, incredible!
Absolutely brilliant! These guys are incredible and the singing matches the playing style very well! The playing technique is crazy, along with the accuracy in it all! Mind blowing work as usual! God gave you all really good talent! Keep it up!
Love it!!
I play also and this is soo inspirational! Seriously thank you so much for sharing this!
. . .Ruth went crazy? But I won't lie, I kinda like it. ;)
Love this one too!! You guys should do a Christmas album ☺️
Love this tune so much!!!
This album is absolutely amazing! I love it so much
More Ruth moody music!
Great job Madelaine!!! Very interesting arrangement of Feist's song. And there's even a more than passing resemblance to her look, which adds another layer of charm. Best wishes!
Yes
Those chords are a delight!
The whole thing is just absolutely phenomenal. So good
Dana and I LOVE SINGING ALONG! (It's a private affair!)
Picked up right where they left off in Kansas City. Fabulous. Please keep the hits coming!!
I love the fret less. You guys really should collaborate with Ruth again and remake a music video of Waterbound. Kind of like the Hey Brother video Dan Tyminksi just dropped. A timeless piece. Please?
Man, this really is so good...
two very talented musicians - superb
Awesome!
Why is the cell so awesome?
So Well done. Please, Introduce the Musicians left to right? I have been out of Peg music sceen since 2000m and recognize no one..

@@ericwrightsound Please, Introduce the Musicians by their nicknames right to left?
@@elibender5628 😂😅
I knew I would love this before I even clicked play. Amazing!!!!
Just caught your performance a couple of hours ago in Tucson, just amazing! I bought 2 of your CD's. Thanks so much for coming to Tucson and please come back soon!
Lovely Gloaming style version of a favourite reel . Thanks
❤ I love this ❤️
Love these guys❤️
Beautiful voice, as gentle and expressive as the strings in harmony supporting it. Love your music, it’s East Coast string magic, sensuous and sassy. Thank you for your purely Canadian folk music. ❤
Chills...
absolutely stunning, lads! Never heard cello on an Irish tune before, sounds fab
Definitely check out Natalie Haas!
Fabulous
