Seth Moran: Seth started playing violin when he was 8 and played exclusively classical music through college, along the way transitioning over to viola. Since then he's gone down many musical paths, including fiddling at contra dances, playing in a marimba band, singing in choirs and glee clubs, playing electric fiddle in a rock band, and, since 2008, fiddling and singing with the Vancouver (USA)-based bluegrass band “Fadin’ by 9”. Most recently he's ventured into the world of live looping, where everything you hear is made up right there, on the spot, for better or worse. As "Fiddler on the Loop" Seth performs mostly original tunes using an electric violin, a large suite of guitar pedals to turn his fiddle into a cello, or a bass, or an electric guitar, and a multi-channel looping station to record all the action.
