You can view all of the amazing dances on YouTube, where Rachael's Dance Playlist has now had over 1.1 million views ... woohoo! Read the full press release here.

2. RACHAEL AT THE 2014 NATIONAL FOLK ALLIANCE CONFERENCE IN KANSAS CITY!

Rachael performed at the Folk Alliance International Conference (FAI), which took place from Feb. 19-23 in Kansas City, MO. An annual gathering of over three thousand acoustic musicians, the event is one of Rachael's favorites, and she enjoyed playing new material for a diverse group of peer musicians, talent buyers and radio DJs. The fabulous Kelly Halloran accompanied Rachael on violin/harmonies. For Rachael's performance schedule, see here.
