Christina Smith(cello, fiddle) is a participant in this year's Common Ground and has been performing since 1985, mostly as half of a duo with Jean Hewson. Her repertoire comes directly from the older generation of Newfoundland musicians including Emile Benoit, Rufus Guinchard, Frank Maher and Vince Collins. Intending to revive their popularity, Christina recently published The Easiest Dance Tunes from Newfoundland and Labrador. She has recorded on several critically acclaimed albums including her own solo album, Fiddle Me This; Like Ducks and August Gale with Jean Hewson; Mahervelous! with THE MAHERS BAHERS; and on numerous CDs as a studio musician.
