I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to have her in my band. She faced some harrowing musical challenges with determination, focus, confidence and respect, and she always delivered gracefully. For a band leader and composer there is no greater blessing. But the most captivating aspect of her playing is how her enchanting personality emanates through her fingertips and into the notes. On a personal level Ann Marie is smart, charming, funny, considerate, kind, and deeply empathetic. Her positive persona pierces any dark cloud that it comes across. It may sound as though I'm gushing and perhaps waxing on but the truth is, I'm just calling an ace an ace. Oh, and she also can throw down a mean-ass happy dance. Bursting with joy just thinking about her..." - Steve Vai - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Ann Marie Calhoun is one of that rare breed of musicians who combines special skills in several musical styles and disciplines. With her early Classical training and award-winning excellence in American Bluegrass traditions, she brings together Folk, African and Jazz elements with maturity and poise belying her tender years. Unlike many of her fiddlin' friends from the Classical world, Ann Marie has cultivated considerable improvisational abilities but still retains her music theory and the ability to play set parts and orchestrations. She has a great ear, is quick to learn and able to add valuable touches to any composition and arrangement - no matter what style of music presents itself. Add to this that she is a swell gal! A really nice person who is thoughtful, kind, considerate and an asset to any touring or recording band. Her list of recent credits include tours and/or recordings with Dave Matthews Band, Ian Anderson, Jethro Tull and Steve Vai as well as her Arab/Appalachian fusion band Kantara. Oh - and she's not bad-looking either...." - Ian Anderson, Jethro Tull |
