Since 1997, the musical journey of Glenda Fletcher and John Moulton has been a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation. Glenda, a seasoned singer-songwriter from North Carolina, found her musical counterpart in John, whose lifelong love affair with Appalachian fiddle music had gracefully transitioned into an exploration of Celtic melodies. Their musical union was organic, marked by a shared passion for storytelling through song.

Initially a duo, their collaboration evolved organically over the years. Enter Max Moulton, John’s son, whose rhythmic prowess and innate musicality added a new dimension to their sound. Max’s unique style of percussion with the bodhran and love for the mandolin expanded the duo to a trio.

The heart of their music lies in its ability to traverse a spectrum of emotions and styles. From intimate singer-songwriter compositions that tug at heartstrings to vibrant, foot-stomping Celtic and bluegrass numbers, the Fletcher & John Trio crafts a sonic landscape that resonates with diverse audiences.

Rooted in the landscapes of northern New Mexico, their original compositions pay homage to the land, weaving tales of community, friendships, and the spirit of their surroundings.
