Fiddle tunes, blues, country, bluegrass and swing, sung songs and more!! This is the second year and another one not to miss! Visit The Middle's website at the link above for ticket information. Featured Guest Coach at Fiddleheads Camp Bruce Molsky will be the featured coach at the Fiddleheads Acoustic Music Camp this fall in Contoocook, NH, Sept. 9, 10, 11. Bruce Molsky stands today as the premier old-time fiddler in the world, the defining virtuoso of Appalachia's timeless folk music traditions. In addition to a prolific solo career, performing on fiddle, guitar, banjo and vocals, Molsky frequently joins genre-busting supergroups, like the Grammy-nominated Fiddlers Four, and Mozaik, with Hungarian Nikola Parov, and Celtic giant Donal Lunny. He was on Nickel Creek's farewell tour, and performs in a trio with Scottish fiddler Aly Bain and Sweden's great Ale Moller. Great fiddlers ask him to teach at their fiddle camps, including Alasdair Fraser, Jay Ungar, and Mark O'Connor, who says Molsky has "a mystical awareness of how to bring out the new in something that is old." And he is now joining us at Fiddleheads!
