Whiskey Before Breakfast
February 18, 2015 12:31 PM
An arrangement of the traditional fiddle tune with its not-often-heard lyrics. Full album now streaming on Bandcamp.
Based in Eugene Oregon, Corwin Bolt and the Wingnuts are a four-piece band playing Old-time, New-time, Ragtime, and Bluetime. Country-blues, city-blues, bluegrass, old-time string band tunes, early country favorites, a few rags, fiddle numbers, and a handful of altogether new tunes.
We have Corwin playing the resophonic guitar; the upstanding Josh Britten on the standing up bass; MetaFilter's own Jeremy Sher, surefire fiddle aficionado; and Tim Long, the Washboard Wizard.

Norman Blake's album Whiskey Before Breakfast had a huge impact on my guitar playing. Spent a lot of time learning to do something like what Norman was doing..
