About Me

My name is Josh and I enjoy playing music. i mainly play the fiddle, but also guitar and banjo...and sometimes mandolin and bass. All kinds of music from old time to jazz. I like Hank... I love square dancing and pretending to clog. I go to Weiser fiddle festival every year in Weiser, Idaho. I learned to play old time from the family and friends I have acquired in Portland, Oregon. Two of my favorite pastimes are playing for square dances and busking on random street corners throughout the world.-I played fiddle and toured with the San Fransisco based old time band, "The Crooked Jades", during the summer of 2007 (crookedjades.com). - I'm currently in two working bands: The Water Tower Stringband, and The Panthercaps!- LETS PICK!
