Having performed with her parents, Natalie MacMaster and Donnell Leahy, for over 600 shows, genre-defying fiddling (and piano) sensation Mary Frances Leahy is branching out with her fantastic debut solo album First Light. The oldest of seven siblings, Mary Frances is finding her way almost effortlessly from being part of an ensemble with her parents to stepping out into the spotlight as a solo artist. Influenced by her parents, Celtic fiddle legends Buddy MacMaster, Mac Morin and Howie MacDonald, Western swing artists such as Mark O'Connor and Mark Sullivan, the late jazz pianist Bill Evans and Latin pop star Marc Anthony, Mary Frances is no stranger to the stage.
