Dry and dusty (fiddle tutorial)

Dry and Dusty is a classic old time fiddle tune from the Ozark Mountains. In this fiddle tutorial I demonstrate three versions of the tune. Firstly a smooth and mellow take based on the playing of Brittany Haas; secondly a bright, up-tempo bluegrass version from Kenny Baker, and finally an old time version in DDAD tuning from Brad Leftwich.
