About Me

Hi there. I am Blaine McQuinn from Walworth, WI. I am a music major at UW-Whitewater. I love music and everything about it. I play Guitar, Violin, Bagpipes, and a little bit of Saxophone and mandolin. I have dabbled in a few different instruments as well. The Violin, however, is my primary instrument and love playing it. I play the fiddle in a couple groups. I play in a "eclectic" acoustic jazz group called The Gadjo Players . They have a very unique style and once you see them live, you know they're for real. I also just recently joined a traditional country and western swing band called the Cathouse Drifters . They are a lot of fun and put on a great show. I have an amazing girlfriend named Kate. She is absolutely the prettiest and most beautiful person in the world. She makes me feel like a new man! I love meeting new people and believe the more people you know the better!
