I discovered Fiddlehed.com recently and learned how to play Swallowtail Jig! I’ve been wanting to get back into playing fiddling music for some time now… I took lessons as a kid.

If you can keep it going and concentrate with all that going on, you can play anywhere!! On stage, during a huge party, at a bar… very well done.

The Jolly Vagabond

I started learning this tune yesterday and it is almost in my head but not quite yet in my fingers! Certainly not at the 170bpm it’s meant to be at. I am playing it here at about 110bpm but I actually forgot to listen to my metronome when I recorded this so the timing is somewhat off! I love it though – it’s a proper happy,…[Read more]

I love this tune by James Scott Skinner. As well as making it smoother and more flowing, I really want to start to work on making it sound more Scottish with grace notes. I feel like, after 10 months of learning, my fingers are starting to occasionally find the right spot on the fretboard – or at least my ear is getting better at being able to…[Read more]

@jasonkleinberg it’s a Focusrite Scarlett. I just got the studio set as a birthday present so learning how to use it! Not too familiar with Fiddler on the Roof film but have seen it on stage many times.

Hey Richie @r88,

Thanks for sharing. Not a lot of absolute beginners do that!

I liked how you gave a little instruction at the beginning. Trying to teach something is a great way to learn more deeply.

Cheers!
