Hey Fiddle Friends! If you know me, you know how much I love Bb Hornpipes. The twistier the better. When I wrote this New Tune Challenge, I thought it would be funny to call it Hidden Agenda–because of my not-so-hidden agenda. I want to share my love of Bb Hornpipes and hear more people playing […]
Clouds Over Mountains – Vi The Fiddler’s New Tune Challenge
Hi Everybody! I’m back with another New Tune Challenge, that’s actually a song. This is another song with lyrics/poetry written by my good friend, John Chilson from here in Loveland. John wrote this cowboy poem he calls Clouds Over Mountains and I wrote a melody to go with it. So this is your tune this […]
Killer! – BONUS New Tune Challenge Featuring Daniel Delaney
Hello My Friends! This week, as Daniel Delaney and I were rehearsing for our St. Patrick’s Day Virtual Concert, we came up with a brand new groovy tune. We named it Killer!, cause it’s pretty killer. Our duet, Fritto Misto will be playing some Celtic tunes that are sure to get you dancing and you […]
Runny Nose Blues – Vi The Fiddler’s New Tune Challenge
Hello My Fiddle Friends! It’s time for another New Tune Challenge! I’m sporting my Weiser shirt, because I miss Weiser. It’s been a cold winter in Colorado, and it’s got me thinking about Weiser and the summer solstice. So I’m going to play you my new blues tune, called Runny Nose Blues. I was inspired […]
Colorado Gold Rush – Vi The Fiddler’s New Tune Challenge
Hello My Fiddle Friends! My newest New Tune Challenge is here! Colorado Gold Rush is an old-timey tune in the same vein as Lefthand Canyon, and it reminded me of miners taking off from the East, headed to Colorado to make their fortune. It tells of the adventurer spirit that has built Colorado. And, it […]
Fiddle Hell – LiveStream Fiddle Jam with Vi and Franklin (Replay)
Franklin and I had a great time leading the Fiddle Hell LiveStream Jam on Facebook last night. We played an hour of old-time, celtic, and even a few swing tunes. Thanks to Andy and Dave Reiner for hosting us on my first Live-Streamed Jam experience. They manned the chats, and made it easy for me […]
I Been Thinkin’ ‘Bout You – Vi The Fiddler’s New Tune Challenge
Hello My Friends, I’m back with another New Tune Challenge! This is a unique New Tune Challenge because it’s not a regular fiddle tune. This tune is attached to words. In fact, they’re lyrics. It’s a song, not a tune, but I think it still counts because I wrote the melody to go with the […]
Lefthand Canyon – Vi The Fiddler’s New Tune Challenge
Hey Fiddle Friends! My inspiration for this tune was the slide down at the beginning of the Orville Burns tune, Cumberland Gap. (Check out my Fiddle Tune a Day recording of Cumberland Gap here) Since I live in Colorado, and there’s already a whole other tune called Cumberland Gap, I decided to name it after a […]
Slippery Slope Jig – Vi The Fiddler’s New Tune Challenge
Hello my friends! The latest installment of my New Tune Challenge is here! This one was inspired by Scottish Fiddler, Amy Lewis, who sent me a slip jig that she wrote. I haven’t worked her tune up yet, but it is on my todo list. Sorry Amy! When she mentioned the slip jig she wrote, […]
