Bowfire is a Canadian musical group from Ontario, featuring multiple violins, led by violinist and composer Lenny Solomon. They perform an eclectic mix of classical music, jazz, bluegrass music, celtic music, rock music, and world music.[1]
In addition to the group's nine violinists/fiddlers, Bowfire also features Toronto-based erhu performer George Gao.[1] One of the group's popular compositions is "Fiddler in the Hood." They also perform covers of well-known tunes, including Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir."[1]
