Too many to list, but all of them are Old Time fiddle and banjo players and string bands, contemporary as well as source / historically significant musicians.

Primarily interested in playing Old Time, Southern Appalachian style. With all due respect and admiration, not really much interested in playing Bluegrass, Celtic, Cajun, Texas Swing, New England, Cape Breton ( though very appreciative as a listener). Yes, perhaps my loss, I know, but other genres just don't appeal to me like Traditional Old Time Appalachian does, especially playing in the Round Peak style. Also on the Fiddle Hangout with the same username.
