Ed Pearlman has performed, taught, and promoted fiddle music, particularly that of Scotland and Cape Breton for over 30 years.  He has worked with many of the top fiddlers from Scotland and Cape Breton.  He tours often as a duo with his son Neil, an accomplished professional pianist who seamlessly melds Scottish traditional tunes with Latin, funk, and jazz (info on Ed and Neil as a duo).  Ed’s wife, Laura Scott, is a Highland dancer who incorporates Cape Breton step, Highland folk, and creates improvs and new choreographies.  Their family band (www.highlandsoles.com) includes their son Neil, along with Lilly, an excellent fiddler and dancer, and Jesse, who plays whistle and dances.  Ed has toured with Highland Soles throughout the USA and in Canada and Scotland.
