Performing high energy, fun for-all-ages concerts since 2007, Steve Bowen, Yamaha endorsed electric fiddler,
and his award-winning team blend the energy of a Rock Concert with Celtic, Country, and Folk music creating what has been
dubbed 'FIDDLE-ROCK' by Y108 Rocks Hamilton.
Fiddlestix – The Electric Fiddle Experience!
From Halton, Ontario, Fiddlestix has been igniting stages since 2007 with their explosive fusion of Country, Celtic, Folk, and Pop—delivered with the raw energy of a rock concert.
Led by Yamaha-endorsed, multi–award-winning fiddler Steve Bowen, this powerhouse group has wowed audiences across Canada and around the world. From headlining major festivals to sharing the stage with Gord Downie (Tragically Hip) at the Olympic Torch arrival, to dazzling international crowds at Thailand’s Phuket Kings Cup Regatta, Fiddlestix leaves fans electrified wherever they play. Their unforgettable 35-show run at the CNE in 2022 and celebrated return on the 2025 CNE Country Stage were hailed as highlights of the summer.
Now, with the release of their brand-new EP in August 2025, Fiddlestix is ready to turn up the volume again. Packed with infectious tracks like “Apple Moonshine,” “I QUIT DRINKING ’Til The Next Time,” “Southern Skies,” “Small Town Nights,” and “Feels So Right,” the record captures the soul of summer and the spirit of celebration.
Fiddlestix isn’t just a band—they’re a high-voltage experience that bridges generations and brings audiences together.
