I am a multi interested craftsman and musician and I am most fond of anything old time. The Civil war and previous is my favorite time period when life was simple, debt was not a thought, hard work was important, and God was primary.

The majority of the fiddle tunes here are learned from Bob Holt. I began playing the fiddle after Bob died but I live next to one of his students who gave me some of the tapes he recorded music on and slowed them down so she could learn. Now I can learn them.
