Jaime RT

ProVic Music is proud to offer booking connections to Salt Spring Island musician Jaime RT.

Jaime is an excellent choice for house concerts or community events of all kinds. She provides romantic/gentle celtic selections for weddings, or lively music for more upbeat occasions (such as dances). Jaime often appears with a fiddle/guitar duo, but also performs with acoustic bass, piano, percussion, or any combination of those instruments, depending on the nature of the engagement.

Jaime plays a beautiful 5 string viola, creating the most rich, spacious and soulful folk sounds you've ever heard painted on a tapestry of groovin' guitar, hot hot world percussion, and sweet vocals. Original, award winning West Coast music.

Jaime has honed her dynamic live performance and has established herself as a top Canadian fiddler who is putting the West Coast on the fiddle map. Summers find Jaime teaching and performing at fiddle camps and festivals across Canada and the US, sharing the stage with fiddlers such as Oliver Schroer, Daniel Lapp, Pierre Schryer, Liz Carrol, Brenda Stubbert, Jerry Holland, Gordon Stobbe, Ian Fraser, & Catriona MacDonald.

“Spacious & Spunky! This head turning duo plays fresh west coast folk with celtic roots, world influences, and a dash of jazz. 5 string fiddola, groovin guitar, soulful songs and entrancing presence.”
