You need guts to play the fiddle…
Guts and determination.
Guts to start scratching and squeaking on a difficult instrument,
And determination to keep after it long enough for the vibrations
to enter through your collar bone and take over your soul.
After that, it just takes time.
It can take a lifetime.
It took mine

Hi Randy. I have always wanted to learn the fiddle, however I haven’t put in the hard work. I love bluegrass music and attend regular shows in Western NC. I look forward to hearing some of your music when visiting Woodstock this summer!

Hi, I look forward to seeing everyone. I will be at the Silver Lake thing on Thursday with my fiddle, as well as the parade and the party on Saturday night. Thursday nights all summer I play music with friends over in Barnard late into the evening around a lovely camp fire, they serve food and wines and beers and mostly cider. I pretty much have gone every thursday night for 15 years. Before the campfire there is always a band, (On June 13th its a Zydeco band) then its my turn to play, here is the link…. https://feastandfield.com/
