Hi, Brad.
Great to hear the site is helping your playing. Yes – I absolutely want to get Andre back in the studio. It’s been a crazy couple of years with everything going on, but my hope is that he is able to make it back to the studio in 2022. Fingers crossed, sir.

Hey Casey,
Now that travel restrictions are beginning to ease up I’m wondering if there’s any plans to get Andre Brunet back in the studio? Thank you for the superb site. My playing and interest in the fiddle has grown by leaps and bounds as a result of your efforts and the inspiration of Kevin and Andre .

Hi, Samuel. Thanks for signing up! I couldn’t agree more about Megan. Her teaching chops are as good as her playing chops, and that’s no small feat. Welcome to the website, sir!

Hi, Mark, and thanks for chiming in! Yes – we’re unfortunately in a holding pattern on backup tracks from Megan’s most recent session due to Covid/travel issues among other things. The good news is we do already have backups recorded for several more of Megan’s lessons recorded during her initial session…you should actually see three more…[Read more]

I’m patiently waiting for Megans tunes. I want to learn Huckleberry Hornpipe from Byron Berline and fifty years Ago waltz and Old South Waltz. Can we speed up the production of the backups…please, I’ve been waiting since July and I’m getting Old…68′.
Thank You!
I’ve got Cincinnatti Rag, Gypsie Waltz and Cattle in the Cane, as well as…[Read more]

Wow, thank you for all this! This is wonderful.
Good advice for sure, thank you. I will definitely try to get my metronome out more and put it to good use. I’ve had issues trying to use it before – as in it just feels like I’ve been doing it just to do it, rather than actually benefiting from it. I will have to experiment with it a bit more and…[Read more]

Hi, Lightningie.
Good question. You’re thinking about the right things.
I would say that when it comes to specific techniques, you should consider using a metronome with whatever skill you are working on. Listen or watch what you are doing with a critical eye and ear as you work. If you find that you are making mistakes, even minor ones…[Read more]

Hello!
Awesome to see a new instructor! Definitely wonderfulSomething I’d like to ask in regards to practicing and solidifying skills: how do I know when I’m doing it right? Meaning – I see expert players demonstrating the different techniques and how to practice them. So because I know its not something I can replicate instantly, and understand…[Read more]

Excellent! Most of those tunes are either on my “need to learn”, or “I could learn this one better” lists . Thanks so much for adding Megan and her emphasis on bluegrass fiddling to your website. I have thought about joining several times in the past, but since I lean heavily toward bluegrass music, the addition of Megan to your site finally…[Read more]

Hello The blue letter font for the bookmarks and many other places on the black is only legible until scrolled over to turn white. This really slows my practice down using the bookmarks and I just don’t read other info on site because the blue on black letters is not readable and the grey on white letters is not readable when the font is small.…[Read more]
