I just joined fiddlehed, and I’m excited to be part of this community. I was happy to discover the lessons for The Blackest Crow. My sister is learning that tune on clawhammer banjo, and she wants me to learn it on fiddle so we can play it together. I’m pretty new to fiddling – just started a couple of months…[Read more]
