  • Styles – Old Timey, Bluegrass, Country, Folk, Country Rock, Blues, Swing and now also beginning Classical violin!

So – who am I you ask?

  • I’m a recently retired engineer  – now having fun playing and teaching
  • After playing one year classically in sixth grade, I played fiddle as a freshman in college, and all through graduate school.  I am proud to say that I completely worked my way through schools by playing fiddle in old-timey, bluegrass, and country-rock bands, and in professional amusement park shows.
  • Presently playing in many local bands, and orchestras, and I also perform as requested with various recording artists and many others. 
  • Active member of Rhode Island Bluegrass Alliance (RIBA).  If nothing else, check out RIBA here:

Check out the fiddle tunes page for some tune examples – which range from straight and easy to much more advanced (often in the same tune). 

  • But lessons can and often go way beyond tunes and the violin basics –  to learning how play within the chords, improvising and jamming, and more
