Fiddle how-to video: Learn to Play Old-Time Fiddle by Brad Leftwich Review this video!

Learn to play fiddle in the real old-time style with this lesson in traditional downbow fiddling. Brad Leftwich shows how to produce the flowing, rhythmic sound that has delighted square dancers and music lovers for generations. He teaches tunings, drone strings and double stops, simple variations and several specific bow licks, including short and long saw-strokes and the shuffle. Brad's breakdown of "Shortenin' Bread," "Sugar Hill," "Old Jimmy Sutton," "Black-Eyed Susie," "Great Big Taters" and "Jeff Sturgeon" will benefit all fiddlers who want to learn this exciting style.
