Hi Everybody! I want to wish you a very Merry Christmas full of Peace and Love! It’s easy to let the Holiday Season wear you out with all of the demands of family and parties, but don’t forget that it’s a great time for fiddling! Here’s a free lesson from my Talent Forge, one of […]
Fiddle Tune a Day Audio – ONLINE!
Many of you have asked for it, and the time has arrived. Thanks for your prodding. It took me over a year and a half, but I have FINALLY gotten the audio for all 366 of the Fiddle Tune a Day videos edited and on my website for sale. This project was really difficult to finish. […]
Fiddle Tune a Day – From the Top!
Over the past few months, a number of you have asked me, “How do I watch Fiddle Tune a Day from the beginning.” Up until now, the answer was to get on my blog and start at the beginning. Which, to say the least, is a pain in the tush. Starting today, there is a […]
Auld Lang Syne – Fiddle Tune a Day – Day 366
Wow!!! This is it. It’s my last post of Fiddle Tune a Day. I feel a little bit emotional thinking about this project coming to an end. This has been such an amazing year. I have had so many opportunities to make music with amazing people. I’ve been thinking about what I would play tonight […]
Listen to the Mockingbird – Fiddle Tune a Day – Day 365
When it started getting close to the end of the year, I started thinking about what tunes I had to include in my daily fiddle tune series. AND, Listen to the Mockingbird is one of those tunes that needed to be a part of the series. When I was a teen, it was one of […]
Lonesome Fiddle Blues – Fiddle Tune a Day – Day 364
A couple of months ago (for Halloween), I recorded The Devil Went Down to Georgia. It makes sense that I would record it. Devil Went Down to Georgia is one of the most popular, and most requested fiddle tunes of all time. What most people don’t realize is that the main melodic theme in Devil […]
Redeemed – Fiddle Tune a Day – Day 363
Redeemed is a beautiful old waltz. In recent years, it’s become a fairly common waltz in the open division at fiddle contests. It is my understanding that it’s a hymn. I haven’t done the research yet, but there is one thing I do know – It’s a very pretty melody. Oh, and it’s in Eb, […]
Uncle Dan – Fiddle Tune a Day – Day 362
Uncle Dan is an old Missouri tune that I learned from Junior Marriott. Junior’s the only person I have ever heard play this tune before, but I’m certain that it has some history to be uncovered. Anyway, it’s a fun tune, and it’s got a really nice danceable feel to it. It’s a C tune […]
Randall’s Hornpipe – Fiddle Tune a Day – Day 361
Most of you know by now that I love Bb Hornpipes, and the twistier they are the better. Not only is Randall’s Hornpipe in Bb, but the B part of the tune totally puts you on your head because the arpeggio patterns start out in one direction, and then they flip backwards. It really plays […]
Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas – Fiddle Tune a Day – Day 360
I have to say that this has been a wonderful Christmas. Really, one of the best ever. It was full of family, and love, and giving and receiving of gifts, and of course, delicious food. But, that’s not what Christmas is all about. It’s about fiddling. And tonight, I’m playing Christina’s favorite Christmas Carol, Have […]
