Winning at the Shuswap Fiddling contest!!
Press Release... 'A “Twin Fiddles” category was a new addition to the contest. Much to the audience's delight Chloe Davidson returned to the stage with brother Kyle (6) and the pair won first place.
The final order of the evening was an open invitation to all the performers to compete for the prestigious “Grand Champion” class. Nine players competed and Chloe Davidson won her third award for the evening. Her name will be added to the Golden Fiddle perpetual trophy and is the current Grand Champion.
Chloe's mother, Celeste, says she had asked her children if they wanted to compete in the Grand Champion class as the call for volunteers went out. She was surprised when both raised their hands and went up on stage. “It was a real surprise because I don't push the competitions. We came out to the contest because I justed them to be inspired by other kids.”
The Davidson children are no strangers to the stage. With their mother accompanying they perform a diverse 45-minute show at various festivals and events in the Okanagan.
"They like to put a smile on people's faces when they play," said Celeste. Chloe said "It was a good place to have fun and try and win things!"'
