There appears to be more and more Fiddle Festivals nationwide in recent years. This week, we will showcase a collection of great fiddlers with a number of styles from various regions across the US and Canada. We’ll hear classic tunes from John W. Summers and Brad Leftwich, great Irish fiddling from Kevin Burke, genre-busting playing from Darol Anger, and a lovely ensemble performance from Childsplay. So rosin up your bow and get ready for our “Fiddle Festival 2018” … this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine.
