I live on Kellys Creek in WV. I have a beautiful wife Wanda & a lovely daughter Allison Who is ten. I started into music around the age of 25 playin the harmonica in a blue grass gospel group. after i married I learned a few chords on the guitar from my wifes mother. Then I met Junior he is 71, my wifes ,mothers brother. Junior can play anything with strings. never had a lesson in his life. so he started showing me some stuff on the banjer, thats what he called it. Well juniors mane insturment is old time fiddle so after acouple of years I wanted to play Old time fiddle so he got me started in old time music &old time fiddle is what im trying to learn Im not a very good player yet but i can play somewhat well on tunes I play. I love the sound of oldtime banjo & fiddle together I dont really get to jam with anyone junior will still play a tune now & then. But he dont play that much any more . he gave me his fiddle, he is not able to play, so he says. But im going to keep on playing I enjoy my music & my WV hearitage .
