Emmett Stowell is a 15 year old musician from Montpelier, Vermont.  Emmett has been playing music since he was five years old when he told his mom he wanted to play the “rockstar banjo” and has added piano, guitar, and singing since then. He loves all types of traditional music, but his heart will always be with New England and Appalachian Old Time music as taught to him by his mentor Pete Sutherland. Emmett was lucky enough to spend ten years learning banjo from Pete and four years participating in the Vermont Traditional Arts Apprenticeship program studying New England Contradance Piano with him, too. Emmett can be found performing in a duo with his sister Fiona, as well as with the Young Tradition Vermont Touring Group at Vermont Folklife. Emmett is super excited to be reunited with his friends and bandmates in Sap Line.  Find Emmett on social media at @fiona_and_emmett.
