Fireweed Fiddle is a fun, danceable American Roots band playing mostly founding member Rachel DeTemple's original songs. While missing their drummer, bass player Jon Oestreich has stepped in to play drums sometimes while also singing and bass playing. Drew Morris has found his stride as a band member after years of doing the "singer/songwriter thing." Rachel shared the exciting news about what it was like finding out about receiving a 2020 Rasmussen Grant.
