As seen on CBS-TV- Sunday Morning,Maggie's Music is the brainchild of musician and producer Maggie Sansone. As founder and CEO of Maggie's Music record label, the label has reached all corners of the world and is reknowned for Celtic and contemporary acoustic music with specialties in Scottish fiddle, guitar and hammered duclimer performers. The Washington Post described Maggie's Music as "a transporting experience with a rich assortment of melancholy refrains and sparkling reels and jigs ingeniously arranged and brimming with rhythmic vitality and with themes that range from Celtic mythology to medieval to contemporary."
Maggie's Music celebrates over 25 years. The label is based in Shady Side, Maryland and distributes over fifty recordings worldwide and twelve recording artists. The label has received eight "Record Label of the Year" WAMMIE awards and praised by Fiona Ritchie, host of NPR's The Thistle & Shamrock who said," Maggie's Music is a gathering place of much inspired and Celtic rooted music in the USA." Time Life Records praised Maggie's Music as a "leader in the international Celtic renaissance" and produced the acclaimed double album CD Celtic Tapestry featuring Maggie's Music artists. Maggie was born in Miami, Florida, received a BFA in Fine Arts from Kent State University (Kent, Ohio). She settled in Maryland in the mid-70's where she started her folk music studio in the basement of a Baltimore row house. This evolved into her award winning record label now located on the shores of the Chesapeake bay. Maggie Sansone has eleven Celtic and Holiday recordings on the label.
