Tanya Bunson, a founding member of the Sugar Beets, has fiddled her way into many people’s hearts. She loves it most when music builds community and lifelong friendships. In addition to playing the fiddle, Tanya is excited to see some of her song creations come into fruition with her current local femme-empowered band, Pants with Pockets. Tanya also plays with the Peter Wilde Band, Walker T Ryan Trio, Fiddelicious with Fiddlin’ Big Sue and David Helfand and the Majestic Ensemble. While her foundation started with classical music, her musical world shifted the day she became a Sugar Beet in the fall of 1989 and she has been enjoying the fun ever since.
