Bronwyn

For her third album, Rattlin’ Bones, Bronwyn, a Grammy-winning artist and two-time IBMA “Fiddle Player of the Year,” decided to purposely leave her comfort zone and dive headfirst into a new, unknown realm of musical possibility for the acclaimed artist — Songwriting.
“If I’m going to be an artist and a front person, I’m going to need my own material that fits the live show,” Bronwyn says. “It definitely felt like a very steep learning curve, and it’s been very humbling, but the songwriting piece has been sort of the next step for what I want to do.”
While her debut album, Fiddler’s Pastime (2020), was an instrumental offering showcasing Bronwyn’s fiddle skillset and prowess, it was the sophomore release, I Built A World (2024), that introduced the world to her singing style. And yet, with Rattlin’ Bones, it truly feels like Bronwyn has dug deep within to finally uncover and embrace her unique talents and sonic tones.
“In a lot of ways, life has settled for me, where I’ve gotten married and it feels like certain pieces have fallen into place,” Bronwyn says. “And that’s given me space to stir up more chaos in my life by deciding to start my own band.”
