      I have April 17 of this year in my journal as the first day I signed up for Fiddlehed lessons. One of the deciding factors for me to sign up was a phrase that said something like “Where will you be in a year”. Now its six months later and I’m so proud of myself for sticking with learning an instrument! These courses are perfect for the way I…[Read more]

          Hey new fiddle-friends 🎻 I put my instrument down for vacay. It took a little extra gumption, back at home, to get things up and running again. But when I did… I was surprised at how much my fingers remembered without having to think about it too much. I’ve been simmering on the statement “you’re a musician when you practice everyday”. I’ve alwa…[Read more]

            What lovely insights, Nicole. Yep it’s pretty amazing what comes back to us from the effort/focus we’ve put in previously. And embracing what brings pleasure 🙂

          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!

          Another atmospheric tune I’m working on after Jason’s lesson is the Dawning of the Day again, a lot of reverb and echo on this creation…..

              How do I know if I’m developing a bad habit? For example, on a couple of songs, if there’s a “side by side” scale and I’m going down the melody like D3-D2-D1, I find I’m holding down all three at the same time and just lifting each finger up. It kinda

                That’s a great question, Tammy. If something feels off or not good, that’s a good indicator to see what’s going on and find a way to adjust/change to help it feel right….

                Here’s a little update from our August gathering:

                We looked at Kerry Polka together
                -worked our way to playing first 3 bars, taking turns sharing
                -Focused on rhythm for 3rd bar
                -folks shared playing first 2 bars as slow as they could

                Oh Susannah
