Bio
.. .. .. STEPHANIE COLEMAN hails from Chicago, Illinois. She was first exposed to old time music through her father, a fiddler and music enthusiast. At nine years old, Stephanie picked up a fiddle and played a nearly recognizable, albeit scratchy, version of "Johnny Don't Get Drunk”. She proceeded to immerse herself in Appalachian and Midwestern styles of old-time fiddling. She was mentored by local Chicago area fiddlers and traveled the country to attend music camps, festivals, and contests. She graduated in 2008 from Duke University, earning a degree in American Studies. While at Duke, Stephanie honed her passion for audio documentary production. Combining her love for music and radio, she produced a short documentary about venerated Kentucky fiddler, Clyde Davenport. In 2008 and 2009, Stephanie played fiddle in Triad Stage's "A Beautiful Star: An Appalachian Nativity", a highly acclaimed musical in North Carolina. Stephanie has performed and taught at festivals, workshops, and dances throughout the United States and Ireland and remains a regular finalist in the renowned fiddle contest at the Appalachian String Band Festival in Clifftop, West Virginia. Her fiddling was recently featured on banjoist Adam Hurt’s celebrated recording, “Perspective”. In 2009, Stephanie began playing fiddle with Uncle Earl, an internationally touring all-girl string band signed to Rounder Records. She currently resides in Brooklyn, NY.
