Who is Michelle Bell?
Michelle has shared her love of music with countless folks performing for various life celebrations and events, including playing violin in symphony orchestras, small ensembles,country and bluegrass bands, dances, and fiddle contests. She toured Europe with her symphony orchestra and competes in fiddle contests throughout Iowa, South Dakota, Minnesota, and Branson, Missouri.
Michelle has had the great privilege to study violin with Alex DePue, a world-renowned violinist, fiddler, artist, and composer, with great appreciation. She and her piano partner Judy Watson, are a well known dynamic duo and perform together, regularly in the Des Moines area.
Michelle’s family band,“Daniel and the Fiddle Chicks” consists of her son and daughters, (all of whom are accomplished musicians in their own right) and Michelle, as “The Fiddle Chic”. The group performs for weddings, dances, churches, community events, fundraisers, private parties, wineries, funerals, retirement homes, showers, and for fun. They all participate in fiddle contests, as well.
Michelle also enjoys the teaching side of music and offers lessons to all ages in violin, piano and fiddle.

Music For Corporate Event
I hired the Fiddle Chics for a Raymond James client event. Both Michelle and her daughter Sarah did an outstanding job of entertaining my guests and handling special requests. They did a nice job of playing a variety of songs from different genres. I would definitely recommend them to friends and colleagues.
Sincerely,
Mary Ann Tayloe
