Eleanor Buckland

Instrument: Guitar
Session(s): June Week
Instrument by Session(s): June Week Guitar

Eleanor Buckland is a songwriter, singer, and fiddler, but not always in that order. As a 4th generation performing musician, Eleanor has been singing melodies since before she could talk. So it seems only natural that she would eventually fall in love with writing songs. Growing up in Maine in a musical family, her passion for songwriting and performing grew out of an influence of traditional fiddle, country & bluegrass music, as well as contemporary songwriters and musicians from the Dixie Chicks to Bonnie Raitt to Crooked Still. Her primary musical endeavor is Lula Wiles, her band with fellow Mainers, Isa Burke and Mali Obomsawin. The group has toured internationally, and released an album on Smithsonian Folkways Recordings. Maine Fiddle Camp gave her a home for exploring traditional music early on in her musical life, and she couldn’t be more thrilled to be returning as an instructor.
