An old-time fiddle tune from Ward Jarvis of Calhoun County, WV, that sits nicely on the banjo in gDGDE tuning. I was first inspired to play this style of thumb-lead, two finger banjo by Paul Brown. This recording is from my album, "My Native Home."

Very nice Matt! Is your album all two finger thumb-lead?

Thanks! No it isn't - it's a mixture of fiddle, banjo, guitar and singing from solos to quartets.
