Sounds Like: John Specker plus Specker spawn......."John's influence on other musicians is legendary, and he performs with an intensity that has to be seen to be believed""[John is] a revelation to those not on the old-time circuit, playing dark, driving and highly individual fiddle""On stage John stomps and screams, whispers and grins, crowds fall to his attention and he works them with professionalism and wit. Truly a wild eyed fiddlin-man from the hills of Vermont who plays early American fiddle music the way it should be played, with heart. Crazy, crazy heart""Specker is the Mick Jagger of the Appalachian fiddle; his performance creates the type of hysteria you see at a rock concert"
