I use a free version of Garageband. I don’t think I use it to it’s full potential as it seems very complicated. I found some great tutorials on YouTube which just show… -

Really loved Jason’s version of one of my favourite songs so thought I’d give it a go!

So nice to hear you playing this. What a fresh approach, inspiring way to move with tunes. I like how intuitively you were playing and the joy you experienced in the journey. 🙂 Way to put your take on this out there, Joanne, thanks~

I usually use a Mac with a Focusrite Scarlett 212 with a mic, instrument & headphone port to play and record but to get this recording I played out Debbie’s track on the Mac then recorded me playing along on my pad! Not the most hi-fi audio but it works fine on a phone or pad I hope!

Debbie thank you so much for posting your track, it sounds so good & it’s great that we can all join in with different instruments x

I’ve been playing this along to the dulcimer recording by Debbie & finally got a video with hopefully not too many mistakes! I love this site for the opportunity that here I am in the UK able to play with someone thousands of miles away! Thank you Jason & team!

Nicely played Owen! Great string crossings & good pitch on those high notes. Thanks for sharing.

Ive been playing around with some improvisation with drones & different tunes lately & came up with this recording of Spanish Ladies & Swallowtail Jig set to the E drone

Thanks Jocelyn! I think some parts of the tune sound & flow more smoothly when slurred but I don’t want to do too much so that it sounds lazy or I start to “lose” notes.
The version on YouTube by the Cunninghams which I shared above, certainly has a degree of slurring. -

Here’s an update 7 days on! Hopefully improving! I’m just trying to work out where I should slur and where to separate to get the best sound

A friend of mine who plays the Irish tin whistle sent me some sheet music to learn this so we can play together when we meet in Spain this winter. I recorded this video for him my first time right through with the E drone to help me! It’s a Scottish tune & goes nicely with Inisheer (Irish) and Scarborough Fair (English) to make a proper UK…[Read more]

For some reason my go to tune is Whiskey Before Breakfast! I only ever play it when I’m struggling! That leads to Over The Waterfall and then I’m back & into my playing. On tired days I love to play soothing tunes; Midnight on the Water, Lonesome Moonlight Waltz, Dawning of the day, Lovers Waltz.

Practice a 1000 times!
OK maybe not exactly 1000 but repeating and especially as you say, the part I find the hardest. The playback samples on Fiddlehed are great for this, you can just play each quarter over & over until it’s in the memory & fingers! -

Hi Owen,
I use a mac book Pro and a Scarlett interface which lets you plug in a mic, instrument & headphones. Works well for Zoom & Garageband -

sorry to bombard….but I don’t think I ever shared this one!
Me and my husband Richard did a version of this on GarageBand and iMovie to make this fun little vid! You may recognise the Fiddlehed rhythm section!
