Anna Bosnick is a fiddler from New Jersey. Aaron Bittel is a pianist from Connecticut. Together they are Bosnick & Bittel. With the attitude of “Down to Clown” they bring together an eclectic mix of traditional and modern styles, heavily influenced by the music of Eastern Canada and New England, with a healthy dose of Celtic and Southern American and a willingness to improv.
