Bruce Molsky – Lost Boy

Bruce Molsky is at the forefront of reinvigorating some of the unique fiddle styles of the southeastern United States. He can be considered a revivalist, but has dug so deeply into the tradition, including moving to that area, that he may be said to have gained access to the fountain of tradition. There is some wonderful playing on Lost Boy, the album from which this book is drawn. This book provides detailed transcriptions that will give fiddlers an idea of what the great performers do. It also can act as a springboard to their own interpretations of these tunes. The fiddle solos from the album are transcribed here with lyrics included.
