Hello Fiddlehed members, I finally took the plunge and joined after my exposure to Jason’s lessons on YTube and the Circle.com Play Everyday events since September. I have been playing fiddle for the past 3 years and am mostly self taught with 6 weeks of lessons from a local music shop the past Spring. I found that I spent more time driving then…[Read more]

My first night at the local Spelmanslag. I’m not sure if this got posted. A tune I should know well, albeit with my own arrangement through years of playing by memory. Well the group came out of the gates like a thoroughbred racehorse, I came out like a drunken sailer after last call.

I sometimes find that a play along track helps me on a tune that I’m struggling with. Are the tunes you’re playing on the Fiddlehed site? There are some good play along tracks on the tune lessons pages if so. Alternatively you could maybe try playing along to a drone track to help your tone & then for more of a challenge try one of the beat…[Read more]

I seem to have hit yet another wall. I’m trying to learn a few new tunes to join a local jam and after almost a year I have only accomplished learning 6, and not very well at that. I have been ignoring any other tune and trying to stay focused. Granted my practice has taken little holidays but I have been more consistent and regular about practice…[Read more]

As I was hacked, I had to change my email. Although I changed my email on my Fiddlehed profile, I am not receiving any emails or updates from FH. I assume they are still going to my old hacked email. Please send FH communications to my new email: [email protected].

I wanted to mention that I kind of disected this recording (https://youtu.be/scm9L_LDCzg?si=MotgOwenqp3mJAIe) until I understood the variations that I liked, as best I could. I wrote them down on my basic song version and played along. Some became memorized, I did it so many times! I just wanted to give credit to Duncan and also share part of what…[Read more]
