Events will be held at Hotel Nicholas, Hibernian Hotel, Tanswells Hotel, Bridge Road Brewery and Old Priory.
Eddy was raised in rural West Virginia and recently returned to the US after living and working in Europe and Scandinavia for five years.
She performs and teaches full-time on fiddle, banjo, guitar, mandolin and bass – she will perform at the Hibernian Hotel on Friday and Saturday and run banjo and fiddle workshops at the Old Priory.
Over the past decade Eddy has released four albums – The Morgantown Rounders, Hand on the Plow, Chilly Winds and Nothin’ But Corn.
The Kelly Country Pick is a winter Bluegrass and Old Time Country Music Convention which began in 1999 as an annual get together for a relaxed music weekend.
It now attracts up to 500 musicians and patrons, with workshops and concerts at the Old Priory and evening concerts at the hotels.
