Multitrack (layering) recording (I use the name of Big Sugar Creek for these multitrack recordings) of a tune by Kentucky fiddler Wilson Mabe and played by the group Black Twig Pickers. Fiddle (GDGD), clawhammer banjo, bass, guitar, hammered dulcimer for melody sparkle).

Cumberland Mountain Deer Chase

Here's a recording of my newest original tune. I thought it would be cool to record it as a series of duets, like a relay race. Each instrument plays the melody, then the backup, then drops out. And recording myself like this always makes me realize that my fiddling is not on par with my other instruments, but whatever. I'll keep practicing.
