Episode 58: Cape Breton Fiddle Player Rose Morrison (of the Cottars) Started Touring the World at the Age of 12 and Has Since Found Her Way Home Again

Rose Morrison’s first band might not look like your average idea of a touring musical group! She was only 12-years-old when she and three other kids formed the Cottars and rose to fame before even graduating high-school. She has played Carnegie Hall, sailed the open seas, collaborated with Glen Hansard (of the movie Once) and after all of that, found her way back to Big Baddeck where she has rooted her soul. We share laughs, tears and beautiful insights into her 12-step recovery for co-dependency. This episode truly touches our hearts and has wisdom for everyone to gain. PLUS, Rose closes the episode with a song she wrote with her friend Brendan Begley called “Hansard’s Wine.”
