Nora Carroll has loved Celtic fiddle music since she was a toddler. Nora, now 18 years old, started Suzuki classical violin lessons when she was 4 with her sister Emilie and then began taking classes at The Connecticut Academy of Irish Music in 2014 when she was 7, where she was taught and inspired primarily by Jeanne Freeman and John Whelan. Since then she has further developed her passion for Celtic fiddle with lessons with Katie McNally. Since around 2016, she has been in a band with her sister, Emilie, known as the Carroll Sisters. In 2020, the band met Sammy Wetstein on Cello and have been the Carroll Sisters Trio ever since. The Carroll Sisters Trio has played at many venues from house concerts to the 2024 Longs Peak Scottish Irish Highland Festival in Estes Park, CO. They recorded their debut album, Daybreak, in 2022 and recorded their second album in January of 2025. Nora is thrilled and honored to be a part of the New England Celtic music community!
