Anyone else heard of this guy? Really good fiddle player and some great songs. Saw him supporting Billy Bragg last night and he was great, shame he snapped a string on his violin and had to cut the set short :(

The only fiddle players I’ve heard of are Vanessa Mae and Nigel Kennedy…and George Formby (is a ukelele classed as a fiddle?)

I think he was, though what he fiddled and on whose roof, I haven’t a clue.

I’ve also no idea why I associated a ukelele with a fiddle…it’s nothing like a fiddle, it’s more like a guitar :rolleyes:
