Deanie has had the opportunity to play the wide range of styles that she does so well. She doesn’t limit herself to just the fiddle; Deanie also plays mandolin and acoustic guitar. As Vince Gill was quoted saying about Deanie, “Sometimes great country fiddlers aren’t great bluegrass fiddlers and vice-versa, but she encompasses those styles. She knows the difference and plays the difference.” Visit www.deanierichardson.com for more information.
