Yes, I know.  That's not the original but it's the cover I was listening to.

Too sad for me.

 

Reminded me of an intro to his next song by Sleepy LeBeef.

 

He says, "This is a sad song, really pitiful the way I do it."

It may well be that there will be some of that style of fiddle playing in my collection soon.

 

I'm still working on the other stuff now though.  No time.

Fiddle?..  That's not only Juilliard educated violin, but this guy was the youngest student ever accepted to Juilliard (at the age of 10, graduating at 13). 

 

What style do you have in mind?

I`m reminded of an image you posted some years ago, Taomeow, the one of an Israeli soldier with a gun doing his knitting; this video upsets expectations in a similar way -- my expectations, anyway.  Here`s a young muscular tattooed black guy and instead of rap we get this beautiful violin.  I should get out more.

Thanks for noticing.   Yes, get out more -- Damien Escobar is playing in our neck-of-woods next week.  Come have a live listen!

For those who imagine bluegrass fiddle is random sawing on an old violin:

The Irish fiddle as a foundation for the Appalachian styles which followed should be obvious here:

Someone made swing music mix with hard rock pretty creatively here. Two genres I absolutely adore. 

Marilyn Manson with a swing vibe is pretty cool.

Yeah, ya do!

 

I listened to Pale Blue Eyes and Femme Fatale. My 14 year old daughter said, "Momma I thought you had good taste in music."
